Ruby grapefruit, fennel and black olive salad

I love ruby grapefruit and I love shaved fennel, so it’s not a surprise that this is one of my favourite salads. It can be eaten by itself as a refreshing summer entrée or lunchtime salad, or can be served alongside grilled fish or seared prawns.

Try to find a fennel bulb that still has its green fronds attached. Finely chop the fronds and add them to the salad for a lovely intense aniseed flavour and a lively burst of fresh colour.
