Fennel and Carrot Marmalade
I recently got on a plane again. For the first time in over 14 months and the advent of covid. It was surreal to be honest and I was excited as a kid. I did not enjoy the masking up experience, nor the no entertainment and no food bizzo, but I got to go somewhere out of my home state! WOOHOO. I visited my daughter and her little family, about to be added to in June, when again I will be on a flight to go and play grandie with a brand new baby!
When in Victoria for Easter I was invited to dine at Tokar Estate Winery for their special Easter Sunday menu and I must say, it was totally worth the trip. I loved the entire menu, creative, delicious, local and thoughtful. They served a carrot and fennel marmalade with their equally impeccable rabbit terrine. I was inspired and this recipe is my version. Perfect, though maybe not quite as pretty as your Thermomix does tend to leave things more chopped than un-chopped. We are serving this at our Cheese High Tea event in June with a baked camembert. (SOLD OUT in less than an hour if you are wondering why this is the first time you are hearing of such a thing!) Still, that recipe will be on here soon enough as well, so you can enjoy at your leisure!
