This warm fennel, tomato and bean salad is a lovely side dish to serve with baked fish or roast chicken. It's very easy to make and very healthy too.
Ingredients
- 4 small or 2 large fennel bulbs
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 lemon
- ½ tsp dried chilli flakes
- 1 handful parsley, chopped
- 1 tin cannellini beans
- 2 pieces of grilled red peppers (or jarred roasted pepper)
- 150g cherry tomatoes
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200°C.
