- 7g dried yeast
- 500ml vegetable broth
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- A drizzle of olive oil
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Prepare the Slow Cooker: Start by greasing the slow cooker pot with a little olive oil to prevent sticking.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the edamame, sliced fennel bulb, dried yeast, vegetable broth, oregano, salt, and pepper. Give it a good stir until everything is well mixed.
- Transfer to Slow Cooker: Pour the mixture into the greased slow cooker, spreading it out evenly.
- Cook: Set the slow cooker on low and let it cook for about 4-5 hours. This allows all those lovely flavors to meld together beautifully!
- Check for Doneness: After the cooking time, check if the edamame and fennel are tender. If they're not quite there, give it another 30 minutes.
- Serve: Once ready, give it a gentle stir and taste for seasoning. Adjust if necessary.
- Garnish and Enjoy: Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley and a drizzle of olive oil. Enjoy it with your family or friends, and don’t forget to share stories around the table!
