  • 2 tablespoons roughly chopped walnuts
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons of agave nectar or honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Method

  1. Chop of the very end of the fennel bulb, then thinly slice the fennel bulb with a knife or mandolin. Place sliced fennel into a bowl
  2. Roughly shop the feathery fronds from the top of the fennel and add to the bowl.
  3. Cut the pear into quarters and remove core, slice each quarter and add to the bowl with fennel
  4. Add the walnuts to the bowl.
  5. Put the olive oil, lemon juice, agave/honey, pepper into a small jar, seal and shake vigorously to combine.
  6. Pour the dressing over the salad then toss a few times
