Method

  1. Very finely slice the fennel bulbs lengthways (a mandolin makes this easier). Cut the celery stalks into thin matchsticks. Scatter the fennel and celery on a large plate or platter, drizzle over the fruity extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice, then season. Scatter any fennel fronds and celery leaves over if you have them.

    Delicious - very fresh. I added a few chopped apricots to it which made it even better.

    Made this accidentally with cucumber in stead of celery and it was very light and nice.

    Light and refreshing, I was surprised I liked it so much as not really a fan of fennel but the lemon and celery gave it the right balance.

    Add some very finely sliced green apples, ( skin on) to this salad for a refreshing alternative. A small handful of cumin seeds adds another dimension. Enjoy :)

    Used the cucumber as well as the celery and the lemon-infused oil as others suggested and it was very good.

    Made this as a side dish to pizza and melanzane parmigiana. Chose it because I thought it would be okay to make ahead. Made it 2 hrs ahead of dinner and it was still nice and crisp and fresh.
