Refreshingly crunchy Romaine lettuce leaves, sweet tangy blood oranges, and fennel bulb with its unique mildly licorice-like flavour are topped with honey roasted macadamia nuts and crispy bacon bits, then dressed with black cumin oil and lemon juice.
- 4 Blood oranges
- 1 Fennel bulb, fronds reserved, trimmed, thinly sliced
- 50 g Bacon, finely diced
- 2 Baby romaine salad, separated
- 150 g Honey roasted macadamia nuts
- 1 tbsp Black cumin oil
- 1 tbsp Freshly squeezed lemon juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
|
- Peel and cut blood oranges into rounds or wedges. Set aside.
- Strip the fronds from the stalks and finely slice the fennel bulb lengthways. Reserve the fronds for the garnish.
- In a heavy large non-stick skillet, cook the bacon over medium-high heat for about 10 minutes, or until crisp and golden brown. Transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels and cool slightly.
- Separate the romaine salad leaves and arrange them in a serving platter. Scatter the fennel slices and top with blood orange, bacon bits and macadamia nuts.
- Drizzle over the black cumin oil and lemon juice, then season. Garnish with the reserved fronds and serve.

ReplyDeleteAngie, that is gorgeous! And I think I haven't had any fennel since last winter. I'm overdue and this is just the way to have it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great combination. I absolutely love blood oranges, but I can rarely manage to buy some that are actually red. Usually they are orange tinged with red... Black cumin oil sounds interesting, I have never had it, where did you get it?
