Instructions

Thinly slice the fennel bulbs – using a mandoline slicer will give the best results (reserve 2 tbsp fennel fronds).
Peel the orange, separate segments, and slice it into bite-sized pieces. (Tip: supreme the orange for best results).
Use a Microplane to zest the lemon and then juice (2 tbsp).
Whisk the salad ingredients (oil, zest, juice, salt & herbs) together or combine in a covered glass jar & shake.
Add the fennel, oranges, fronds to a bowl and blend with the desired amount of dressing on top.
Serve topped with a hint of freshly ground black pepper and fennel fronds.
