Fennel salad, asparagus and gourmet peas

Voici une recette de salade de fenouil qui sent bon le printemps ! Alors comme je sais que beaucoup n’aiment pas le fenouil (en vrai, ils ne l’aiment pas encore mais ne la savent pas !), j’ai décidé de le mélanger avec des petits légumes verts bien sympathiques. Oui parce que je pense que les asperges, les pois gourmands et les petits pois c’est ok pour tout le monde ! Bref cette salade c’est un peu tout le printemps dans une assiette (Yes, just that !) et puis bon moi j’aime bien voir arriver ces légumes sur les étals du marché, so I like to cook them just as much !

This fennel salad is packed with flavor and texture,

in a pretty (presque) monochrome green color. You will see, the vegetables cook for a short time because I like to eat them crunchy, but feel free to cook them a bit longer (I didn't say 10 min more eh ?!). Anyway, I hope you learn to love fennel., he only asks to be loved, be careful I'm on the verge of offering it to you cooked but I'm staying soft for the moment !!! Good and if you were already ready for cooked fennel there is an old recipe for fennel tatin here.
