Fennel is a fragrant plant with extensive culinary uses and a delicate taste of anise. In alternative medicine, this vegetable is used to heal infections, digestive problems, and eye problems, and it contributes to the production of breast milk. In addition, fennel seeds are a rich source of protein, fiber, and minerals, such as calcium, iron, and magnesium. Fennel is a common guest in many of our kitchens, but I’ve always had a hard time incorporating it into cooked dishes until I found this wonderful roasted potato and fennel recipe.
