Fennel is excellent deep fried.
I normally dislike the taste and smell of it but deep fried it's de-li-cious

>implying Americans even know what fennel is

Anyway, here's a couple favorite recipes:

Fennel risotto with citrus (2 servings)
Peeled oranges 80g
Italian rice 120g
Extra-virgin olive oil 10g
Butter 10g
Fennel 320g
Ricotta cheese 60g
1 onion
salt, pepper

Put the onion into a pan with 1 liter of water and bring to boil. Melt the butter in a skillet and toast the rice for a couple minutes, add 4 ladlefuls of boiling water and cook for 3-4 minutes, add cubed fennels and a pinch of salt and continue cooking for about 8 minutes. Add water if needed. Meanwhile, blend the orange with the ricotta cheese in a blender and add to the pan when the rice is almost cooked through. Wait a couple more minutes, then stir vigorously until the sauce is reduced. Add salt and pepper to taste, let it rest for 1 minute, add a tablespoon of extra-virgin olive oil on top of the rice and serve.

Fennel, carrot and pickle salad (2 servings)
Pickles 100g
Onions (must be a sweeter variety or just use scallions) 30g
Carrots 150g
Whole milk plain yogurt 30g
Fennel 150g
Mayonnaise 20g
Mustard 5g

Slice fennel into thin slices, peel and grate carrots, mince the onion and cut pickles into half moons.
Mix together and dress with mayo, yogurt and mustard.

Sorry for the lack of imperial measurements.
Also, the risotto has 350 kcal per serving and the salad only 120.
