    This was a fabulous meal - especially with our homemade sweet potato gnocchi. I sliced the fennel finely with a mandolin and it was delicious tossed with pesto. I also found the pesto too oily, although adding lots of Parmesan made the texture drier. I also added a good squeeze of lemon juice. Definitely will make again.

    My partner loved it. I found the pesto too oily so I will make it again (to use up fronds) but use less oil.

    This was really good. Bright, fresh flavors. Doesn't scream FENNEL! My only adjustment was a big squeeze of lemon juice. Next time, I'll try slicing the fennel more thinly but I did like the crunch of the thicker slices.
