Strawberry Fennel Salad with Salmon

This week or Good Friends Good Food group is making salad with fruit, chosen by Margaret. The first fruit of the year in northern Germany is the strawberry. The local season is open when the strawberry stands shoot up like mushrooms from the ground. This season started late. I already made a strawberry cucumber salad, but as a food blogger you are always looking for something new. At BBC goodfood I found this

Strawberry Fennel Salad with Salmon

I like the combination of strawberries and salmon, why not adding fennel to it amd serve as salad? I blanched the fennel so that it still had bite, but was easier to chew.

Directions

1. Drain the beans and place in a saucepan. Cover with fresh water and boil rapidly for 10 minutes to remove toxins. Tip into the slow cooker, cover and cook on High for 3-4 hours until tender.

2. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a frying pan. Add the onion, garlic and fennel and fry gently for 2 minutes, stirring, until softened but not browned.

3. Tip into the beans and add all the remaining ingredients except the eggs. Re-cover and cook on "High" for 3 hours until everything is tender. Stir well, taste and re-season if necessary.

4. Carefully break the eggs into the soup. Cover and cook for a further 2-4 minutes or until they are cooked to your liking. Ladle into warm bowls, making sure everyone gets two eggs. Garnish each serving with one or two fresh sage leaves and serve with warm ciabatta bread.
