Step by step recipe

• 1: Use a fork to mix 100 g cream cheese with a few finely chopped chives.
• 2: Add 50 g sardines in oil and 1 tablespoon lemon juice...
• 3: ...and mix thoroughly.
  Add salt if necessary (this will depend on your cheese) and pepper, then check the seasoning.
• 4: Rinse 1 red Belgian endive, cut off and separate all the leaves.
• 5: Fill each leaf with the filling mixture (it's not essential, but a forcing bag is ideal for this).
• 6: Top each one with a sliver of red mixed pickle.
  That's all there is to it. Keep refrigerated if you'll be serving them later.

Remarks

Of course, if you don't have red endives, which have a short season, the green variety will work just as well.
Similarly, you can also change the filling and use mackerel rillettes, salmon rillettes or Oriane's tuna rillettes .
