  • serves 6 people
  • preparation 15 minutes
  • difficulty Easy level

Ingredients

  • 2 blood oranges
  • 5 baby fennel bulbs, very finely sliced
  • 6 chervil sprigs, leaves picked
  • 120 ml extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp white wine vinegar
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

Use a small, sharp knife to cut the peel from the oranges, making sure to remove all the white pith. Holding the oranges over a bowl to catch any juice, cut on either side of each segment, removing wedges of flesh but leaving the membranes. Place the wedges in a mixing bowl (use the juice for another purpose).

Add the fennel and chervil to the orange. Drizzle with the oil and vinegar and season to taste with salt and pepper. Toss and serve immediately.
