FRESH FENNEL AND TOMATO SALAD

Steps:

• Slice the fennel into thin strips (details on how to do this are in the recipe notes)
• Slice the tomatoes into segments (bite sized quarters - like pieces of a orange. Slice the tomato lengthwise then slice into quarters)
• Make the Vinaigrette at the bottom of your salad bowl.
• Mix the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, lemon juice and a pinch of coarse sea salt.
• Whisk vigorously until the consistency becomes viscous. (the vinaigrette will thicken slightly)
• Add the tomatoes and fennel to the bowl. Toss the salad lightly with spoons to coat but not so hard as to bruise the tomatoes.
• Finish off with the zeste of half a lemon and a final sprinkling of coarse sea salt.
• Bon Appétit!

Slice 1 lemon into thin rounds and spread out on the baking tray, drizzle over 1/2 tbsp oil and sprinkle over the sugar. Roast for 20-25 mins until shrivelled and caramelised in places. Keep an eye on them - you may have to take some out the oven before the others are done. These can be made in the morning and kept at room temperature.
• While the lemons are cooking, roughly chop the tomatoes and thinly slice the fennel, saving the fronds. Put in a bowl with the remaining olive oil, juice from the other lemon and pomegranate seeds. Season to taste, then give everything a good mix.
• When you're ready to serve, roughly chop all the herbs and mix them into the salad along with the roasted lemons and fennel fronds.
