Pan of crunchy fennel, to eat with taste but lightly without sacrificing practicality and convenience.

Today we bring a well crunchy pan to the table and we will use vegetables that lend themselves very well to the gratin version. Fennel, rich in fiber and mineral salts, perfect for those who want to keep the figure that it is said that they should only be eaten raw or in salads. Fennels can also be cooked in the oven with the addition of extra virgin olive oil and breadcrumbs and form a delicious crust on the very crunchy surface.

Sinking your teeth into crunchy fennel is a special sensation because from the crunchy crust, we move on to softer cooking. A feeling of lightness and freshness that I can’t describe in words, but which a dietary and tasty dish manages to bring about. It is very simple to prepare this pan and the cost is really low. Let’s see the quantities we need and what we need.
