Roasted Fennel with Olives and Garlic

This roasted fennel with olives and garlic is a sophisticated vegan side dish that celebrates classic Mediterranean flavours. By roasting the fennel wedges at a high temperature, they become beautifully tender with a delicate sweetness that contrasts perfectly against the salty Kalamata olives and fragrant herbs. The addition of crushed garlic and a hint of dried chilli provides a savoury depth, making this a standout accompaniment to a variety of main courses.

Ideal for year-round dining, this vegetable dish is remarkably versatile as it can be served warm from the oven or at room temperature. It is a fantastic option for effortless entertaining or a healthy weeknight meal, bringing a touch of aromatic elegance to your table. Pair it with crusty sourdough or serve it as part of a larger plant-based spread.
