Method:
Dressing
  1. To make dressing, whisk all the ingredients in a jug.
  2. Season to taste.
Salad
  1. Combine half of the dressing with fennel. Toss to coat. Set aside.
  2. Cook the risoni in a large saucepan of boiling water for 8 minutes or until tender. Drain and rinse with cold water. Transfer to a large mixing bowl and stir through remaining dressing.
  3. Add tomatoes, capsicum, olives, parsley, basil and fennel. Toss well to combine. Place in a serving dish and finish with eggs, a scatter of almonds and fennel fronds (see tips)
Tips & Hints:
  • You can swap out risoni for wholemeal pasta shapes or gluten-free pasta.
  • Use a mandolin to thinly shave fennel.
  • If you can’t buy fennel with green fronds attached, top with a small scatter of finely chopped parsley
