  • 1 lime, juiced
  • ½ small white cabbage, shredded

  2. Step 2

    For the coriander cream, in a separate bowl, combine the chopped coriander, soured cream, garlic and remaining lime juice with a little salt; mix well.

  3. Step 3

    Assemble just before serving: spread the coriander cream over a platter, top with the fennel mixture and scatter over the coriander leaves and any fennel fronds.
