In a large, heavy bottomed pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add all the vegetables and cook, stirring frequently, for 6 to 7 minutes, until they begin to soften.
Add fennel seeds, bay leaf, and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
