Unexpected Apple Fennel Pistachio Recipe

Unexpected Apple Fennel Pistachio Recipe

October 28, 2025 Written by Sophia

Today, I’m excited to share a unique and delicious recipe that combines unexpected flavors for a truly unforgettable dish. This recipe was inspired by a recent trip to a farmers’ market where I stumbled upon some fresh, local ingredients that inspired me to get creative in the kitchen.

For this recipe, you’ll need the following ingredients:
– 250g of pink lady apples, diced
– 150g of fennel bulb, thinly sliced
– 100g of pistachios, chopped
– 1 tbsp of honey
– 2 tbsp of balsamic vinegar
– Salt and pepper to taste

To bring this dish to life, you’ll need the following kitchen tools:

  • chef’s knife
  • cutting board
  • skillet
  • spatula

Start by heating a skillet over medium heat and adding the diced apples and sliced fennel. Cook until the apples are slightly caramelized and the fennel is tender, stirring occasionally. This should take about 10-15 minutes.

Next, add the chopped pistachios to the skillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until they are toasted and fragrant. Drizzle the honey and balsamic vinegar over the mixture, stirring well to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Once everything is well combined and heated through, remove the skillet from the heat. Serve the dish warm as a side dish or even as a topping for grilled chicken or pork.

This dish weighs approximately 600g when cooked and serves 4 people. Each serving weighs around 150g and contains approximately 200 calories.

One clever tip for this recipe is to sprinkle some crumbled feta cheese on top before serving for an added layer of flavor and creaminess.

I hope you enjoy trying out this unique dish and don’t be afraid to get creative and make it your own with different nuts or fruits. Happy cooking!
