Assembling the gratin


Preheat your oven to 180°C (360°F).

Butter a gratin dish and pour the endives + ham into the bottom.

Stage 10 - 2 min.
Ham and endives au gratin
Pour over 175 ml bechamel sauce.

Stage 11 - 2 min.
Ham and endives au gratin
Finish with the diced cheese.

Stage 12 - 30 min.
Ham and endives au gratin
Bake for about 50 minutes at 180°C (360°F).
Remarks
You can also bake it in individual cassolettes rather than in a traditional oven dish.

When you prepare the béchamel sauce, you can add a little of the same cheese as in the recipe at the end of cooking, for an even more pronounced taste.
Keeping: 1 or 2 days in the fridge, protected by cling film.

Pizza dough is a lind of bread dough with olive oil, which make it softer. This is the same dough that I use for pizzas and flammenkuches, this is no doubt incorrect, but it's very good nevertheless. At home we used to make pizza dough quite thick, and flammenkuche as thin as possible.
