Method

Heat a griddle pan over a high heat. Slice the fennel bulb into 3cm chunks. Squeeze over lemon juice and toss with oil, then season. Griddle the fennel, turning occasionally, until soft and starting to blacken.
Tip the fennel into a bowl to cool slightly. Take a piece of fennel and a piece of mozzarella ball and wrap in a slice of salami. Keep wrapping until all the salami is used up.
Griddle the wraps until crisp, put on a plate to cool slightly, then serve with cocktail sticks and a sprinkling of sea salt and basil leaves.
