2 medium

Light cream cheese

2 tbs, softened

Lemon juice

1 tbs

Fresh dill

1 tbs, finely chopped

Fennel

1 small, shaved

Capers, rinsed, drained

Poach eggs gently for 1–2 minutes or until egg whites are set and yolks remain soft. Remove eggs using a slotted spoon. Drain on a plate lined with paper towel.
  2. Meanwhile, combine cheese, juice and dill in a medium bowl. Add fennel and capers and toss to combine. Season fennel salad with freshly ground black pepper.
