Gratinated Fennel without Béchamel

in

If you love fennel with béchamel, you will love even more those without it, lighter and with a crispy coating. If you like this vegetable, this is definitely a quick and tasty side dish. Furthermore, I don’t even blanch them beforehand, the oven cooking is longer, but they remain firmer and crispier.
