until it is hot. Add the julienned fennel, thyme, tomatoes, salt,
and pepper. Saut? the ingredients for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the
fennel is tender. Set the mixture aside and keep it warm.

it is hot. Add the reserved fennel stems and deep-fry them for 1 to
2 minutes, or until they are crisp. Drain them on paper towels, set
them aside, and keep them warm.

Grill the mahi mahi for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until it is
just done.

In the center of each individual serving plate place a fish fillet.
Place the saut?ed fennel mixture next to the fish. Spoon the Garlic
Mayonnaise between the fish and the fennel mixture. Place the
deep-fried fennel on top of the fish for a garnish.

For Garlic Mayonnaise: In a small bowl place the garlic, egg yolk,
mustard, salt, and pepper. Whisk the ingredients together so that

While whisking constantly, slowly add the olive oil so that a
mayonnaise consistency is achieved.
