Instructions:

Juicy ham and vitamins in abundance make this gratin more than just a filling dish. Italian sliced cheese adds flavor and provides the crust.

Rinse the fennel, remove root attachments and dry scale leaves. Pull off fine strings from bottom to top. Halve and cut diagonally into 1 cm wide strips. Boil the water in a saucepan, add the juice of one lemon, salt and fennel and steam for about 8 minutes with the lid closed. Drain.

Rinse broccoli, clean and cut into roses, peel off hard stems. Bring a little salted water to the boil in a saucepan and steam the broccoli in it for about 4 min with the lid closed until tender. Drain.

Preheat stove to 200 §C. Butter a large baking dish. Remove the peel from the garlic, cut in half and rub into the dish. Cut the cheese into slices.

Cut the ham into small cubes. Clean the mushrooms and cut them into quarters or halves, depending on their size.

Mix the vegetables and ham and put them in the mold. Season with pepper and lemon zest and sprinkle with cheese. Bake in the oven (gas 3, convection oven 180 §C) for about half an hour.

Serve with tomato slices, mixed leaf salad and fresh Italian white bread and grissini sticks. Drink with a dry, fruity white wine from Tuscany.

Prepare 40 min. Bake 30 min.
