Total Time: 50 minutes

Ingredients

1 Fennel bulb

2 Tbsp Olive Oil

1/2 Tsp Ground Ginger

2 Cups or more Vegetable Stock

Directions

Cut the fennel into slivers, reserving the tops. Heat the oil in a skillet, add the fennel, carrot, onion, garlic and ginger. Saute until the onion begins to color about 4 minutes. Add 1 cup of the stock and simmer until the fennel and carrot begin to soften. If the stock cooks out, add more.
