Roasted Fennel and Green Bean Relish

Ingredients
  • 1 large bulb fennel (about 1 pound), trimmed and thinly sliced
  • 2 cups thinly sliced onions
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 pound tiny fresh green beans, blanched in boiling water for 1 minute, then shocked in a cold-water bath
Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Put the fennel and onions in a roasting pan. Add the olive oil, salt, and pepper and toss to coat evenly. Roast until soft and lightly browned, about 1 hour, tossing once or twice. Let cool.

Combine the fennel mixture with the beans and toss to mix. Serve at room temperature.
