Italian Fennel Salad With Orange - Traditional Recipe!
  1. Prepare a bowl with ice and water in it.

  2. Start by shaving the fennel - cut the top off as well as the bottom of the fennel bulb. Then cut the fennel bulb in half lengthwise.

  3. Using a mandolin on the thinnest setting, shave the fennel.

  4. Place the shaved fennel in the bowl with the water/ice. This will keep it crunchy and fresh for the salad.

  5. Peel a large orange, and cut 6 round slices. Set aside.

  6. With the rest of the orange, squeeze out 1.5 tbsp juice into a small bowl.

  7. To the bowl with the orange juice, add 2 tbsp olive oil. Add salt and pepper. Whisk with a fork. Set aside.

  8. Transfer the shaved fennel from a bowl to a tea towel. Use the tea towel to dry the fennel off.

  9. Place the fennel in a plate - this is the base.

  10. Arrange the orange slices on top of the fennel. Add the olives.

  11. Sprinkle orange slices with a bit of coarse salt.

  12. Drizzle the dressing on top of the salad.

  13. Serve and enjoy!
