Ingredients
  • 2 fennel bulbs (fronds discarded)
  • ¼ cup whole almonds, lightly toasted
  • ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 10 garlic cloves, minced
  • ¼ cup golden raisins
  • 2 tsp whole coriander seeds (can use ground coriander)
  • ½ tsp orange zest
  • ¼ cup FRESH orange juice
  • Pinch of saffron, crumbled
  • ½ cup cilantro, chopped

Directions
  1. Slice the fennel lengthwise ¼ inch thick. Coarsely crush the almonds, by placing them in a bag and rolling over them with a rolling pin.
  2. Heat oil in a heavy 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers, then sauté the fennel with the garlic, ½ tsp salt, and ½ tsp pepper until crisp-tender, about 6 minutes. Stir in the almonds, raisins, coriander, zest, juice, and saffron; sauté until the raisins plump, about 2 minutes.
  3. Stir in cilantro, just before serving.
  4. Serve at room temperature or just above.
