I ran across the following while reading my newest copy of Sunset (Oct.

98):

This was shown as part of a meal with Crostini of Chantrelles (mushrooms), pork roast, salad. . .it looks yummy. . .

Prep & cook time: about 10 minutes Makes: about 3-¼ cups; 8 servings In a 10- to 12-inch frying pan over medium heat, stir fennel until seeds are slightly darker, 1- to 2-minutes. Add oil, peel, chilies and olives.

Stir until olives are hot, about 2 minutes. Serve olives hot, warm, or at room temperature. If making ahead, store airtight up to 2 weeks.
