Background

This fennel and celery slaw is a nice accompaniment to fish dishes or to barbecued/grilled lamb - in a kebab for example! It's very easy to throw together, perfect for parties or picnics too.

Ingredients

50g tin of anchovies (in oil)
1 lemon
1 large fennel bulb
1 head of celery (bulb only)
Olive oil, salt and pepper
1 handful of dill leaves

Instructions

Squeeze the juice of the lemon into a small bowl.
Take 8 slices of anchovies out of the tin, cut them into long, thin strips. Add these to the lemon and marinate for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, remove & discard the woody end bit of the fennel. Then cut off the stems, leaving the bulb whole, and slice it up thinly.
Cut off the leaves of the celery - put these aside.
In a bowl, mix the sliced vegetables, add the celery leaves, chopped dill and finely the anchovies with the lemon juice. Mix well, season to taste.
