Instructions
1
- Remove the outer layer of fennel if badly bruised, discoloured and dry.
- Quarter fennel from top to bottom.
- Place a piece on a flat side. Cut away the root, holding the layers together.
- Cut quarter into 1/2-inch wedges, then separate layers.
- Repeat with remaining quarters.
- Add fennel and 1 tbsp oil to an unlined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
- Roast fennel in the bottom of the oven, tossing halfway through, until tender and edges are dark-brown, 22-25 min.
- Transfer fennel to a plate.
2
- Meanwhile, add pecans to another unlined baking sheet.
- Toast pecans in the top of the oven until nutty, 4-5 min. (NOTE: Keep your eye on pecans so they don't burn!) (TIP: If you don't have space in the oven, heat a medium non-stick pan over medium heat. When hot, add pecans to the dry pan. Toast, stirring occasionally, until nutty, 4-5 min.)
- Transfer pecans to a small plate or bowl.
3
- Meanwhile, zest only 1 orange.
- Cut a piece off the top and bottom ends of orange.
- Place a flat end on a cutting board. Cut peel away from top to bottom, reserving peels, turning orange as you go.
- When peeled completely, place orange on its side and cut into 1/4-inch rounds.
- Collect any orange juice in a small bowl. (NOTE: After prepping both oranges, if there's less than 2 tbsp of juice, squeeze rinds and orange rounds to make up the difference.)
- Repeat with remaining orange.
4
- Peel, then cut shallot into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Cut brie into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Add zest, vinegar, honey, shallots, 1 tbsp mustard and 4 tbsp oil to the small bowl with reserved orange juice. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, then whisk to combine. Set aside.
- Move on to glazed carrots and parsnips.
5
- Before serving, add fennel, spring mix, arugula and spinach mix and half the orange rounds to a large bowl.
- Drizzle half the vinaigrette over top, then toss to coat.
- Transfer salad to a serving platter.
- Top salad with brie and remaining orange rounds.
- Drizzle remaining vinaigrette over top, then sprinkle with pecans.
