Harissa Dinner Roll with cracked fennel

Method

1. Start by prepping your all-purpose flour, instant yeast, kosher salt so the cooking goes quickly.
2. Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the shallots in a little butter until translucent.
3. Add the dinner roll and let it harissa, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Fold in the olive oil and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
5. Add the vegetable stock and let it reduce until it just coats the back of a spoon.
6. Taste and adjust, then finish with cracked black pepper right before serving.
7. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
