Ingredients
6 Fennel bulb
Iodized salt
250 grams button Mushroom
200 grams shiitake mushrooms
1 onion
1 garlic clove
3 Tbsps butter
4 Tbsps breadcrumbs
Iodized salt
peppers (freshly ground)
2 Tbsps thyme
200 milliliters Vegetable broth
2 bay leaves
fennel fronds (for garnish)

Preparation steps

1.

Preheat the oven to 200°C (approximately 390°F). 

2.

Rinse the fennel. Remove the fronds and set aside for garnish. Cook the fennel in a pot of boiling salted water for 5 minutes. Remove from the water, drain and cut in half.

3.

Rub the mushrooms with a damp paper towel. Slice thinly. Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic.

4.

Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet and sauté the onion and garlic until translucent. In a bowl, combine the mushrooms, onion, garlic, remaining butter and breadcrumbs. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and stir in the thyme. Divide the mixture between the fennel halves. Place the fennel in a baking dish. Add the broth and bay leaves. Bake until tender and browned, about 15 minutes. Arrange on a plate and serve garnished with fennel leaves.
