Ingredients:
2 lbs fennel bulbs
1/3 cup butter
1 cup grated parmigiano
1 cup whole milk or 1 cup half-and-half
1 cup bechamel sauce
salt

Directions:
Wash the fennel, strip away the outer layer of leaves if they’re tough, slice the bulbs into thin wedges, and boil them for 10 minutes in salted water.
Drain them well and saute them in the butter, adding the milk a few tablespoons at a time, and once you have added it all simmer for 15 minutes.
In the meantime, prepare the bechamel sauce and preheat oven to 400F.
Butter an oven-proof dish, and when the fennel is done simmering transfer it to the dish.
Dust the fennel with the grated cheese, pour the bechamel sauce over it, and bake the fennel for 20 minutes, or until it is lightly browned.
Serve.
