Fennel confit with tangerine

This lovely fennel is first seared in olive oil to give a little color then braised in white wine and a rich veggie stock.  After cooling, chopped fennel fronds, tangerine zest, and peeled tangerines are added. 

Even though this was made for a vegan client, it would make an incredible side dish for pork or a lamb roast!  Thinking ahead also to Thanksgiving...  Might have to reprise this one!
