Roasted Fennel

A Mediterranean Side Dish Treat

We didn't eat this at La Donna, but our meal inspired it. It makes a great side dish for good grilled veal chops.

Heat oven to 450º. Trim the heads of fennel of the greens (reserving them) and then trim the dry, hard bottom from each head. Slice each head thickly. Put them in a roasting pan and toss with olive oil and salt to taste. Roast for 12 minutes. Toss with the reserved greens and serve.
