Roasted Potato And Fennel Salad Recipes

OVEN ROASTED POTATOES AND FENNEL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. (I used an 18x12x1 sheet pan)
• Place the sliced potatoes and sliced fennel in a large bowl.
• Add the 2 tablespoons of olive oil, rosemary, thyme, salt and pepper to the vegetables.
• Toss to combine and then spread them out in one single layer onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Tuck in a few extra sprigs of rosemary and thyme and drizzle with a teeny bit more olive oil.
• Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for about 40 minutes or just until the potatoes are crispy and the fennel is tender with a rich golden brown colour.
• Serve while still warm.
• NOTE
• Slicing fennel is really quite simple. First start by cutting off the stalks from the bulb (you can reserve the stalks for making soup).
• Cut the fennel vertically in half and leave the hard core attached, then slice into 1/2 inch wedges.
• Leaving the hard core attached will insure the wedges stay intact.

ROASTED POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Cut potatoes into quarters, cover with water, salt the water, and bring to a simmer. Simmer until tender and drain, letting all the steam evaporate. When dry and cool, toss with 4 ounces extra-virgin olive oil and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Place in a single layer on a roasting pan and roast for 30 minutes until tender and golden brown. The potatoes will need to be stirred while roasting to insure all sides are nicely browned.
• While potatoes are roasting, "shave" the fennel using a mandoline or the slicing side of a box grater. Thinly slice celery stalks and tops. Reserve.
• Make the vinaigrette: In a large bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, vinegar, and salt, to taste. Gradually whisk in the remaining 4 ounces extra-virgin olive oil. Fold in fennel seeds and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Remove roasted potatoes from oven and allow to slightly cool. Add potatoes and their oil to the vinaigrette bowl. Top with shaved celery and fennel and toss.

ROASTED POTATOES AND FENNEL

Steps:

• Toss 1 pound halved fingerling potatoes with 1 sliced fennel bulb, 1 sliced white onion, 6 sliced garlic cloves, 8 sage leaves, 3 tablespoons olive oil, and salt and pepper on a baking sheet. Roast at 425 degrees F until golden and crisp, 35 to 40 minutes, tossing halfway through. Season with salt and drizzle with olive oil.

ROASTED POTATO AND FENNEL SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F. Prick the potatoes and place on a baking sheet. Bake until crisp and tender, about 1 hour. When cool enough to handle, quarter the potatoes and place in a bowl with the diced fennel, scallions and 1/3 cup of the fennel ferns. Combine the mayonnaise and sour cream, then fold into the potato salad. Season well with salt and pepper. Garnish with the remaining tablespoon of fennel ferns.

ROASTED FENNEL AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place a large roasting tray into the oven to heat it up. When hot remove from oven and add a drizzle of olive oil. Toss potatoes, fennel and garlic onto hot sheet tray, season with salt and pepper and place into oven on a lower rack (below the veal roast). Roast for 60 minutes until golden and caramelized.

ROASTED FENNEL WITH PARMESAN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Remove the stems of the fennel and slice the bulb in half lengthwise. With the cut side down, slice the bulb vertically into 1/2-inch-thick slices, cutting right through the core. Spread the fennel slices on a baking sheet, coat with olive oil, salt, and pepper and toss with your hands.
• Roast the fennel slices for about 1 hour, turning them once after 30 minutes, until the edges are crisp and brown. Remove from the oven and cover with Parmesan shavings. Taste for salt and pepper and serve.
