Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - 20 min.

Prepare 1 kg endives (head of chicory) but do not blanch them. Cut in half lengthways.

Pour 8 tablespoons olive oil into a large frying pan on medium heat and when hot add the endives.

Stage 2 - 10 min.

Fry until lightly browned on both sides. Do this in batches if necessary.

Preheat the oven to 390°F (200°C).

Stage 3 - 3 min.

Arrange a layer of endives in a gratin dish.

Stage 4 - 2 min.

Lay the ham on top.

Stage 5 - 2 min.

Add any remaining endives.

Stage 6 - 20 min.

Pour 500 g cancoillotte over and top with grated cheese (to give a nicely browned top when cooked).

Cook in the oven for about 20 minutes.

Remarks

You can use bà¼ndnerfleisch (Swiss dried beef) brési (French smoked beef from the Franche-Comté region) instead of ham.

If you can't get cancoillotte, just use slices of another cheese, preferably with a soft texture, such as Saint-Nectaire or roblochon.

Keeping: A few days in the fridge.

Source: Home made.

Chocolate tart

As you can see, there's very little added sugar in this recipe, so it's a very chocolatey and bitter-sweet tart.

Crème brulée

Crème brûlée (burned cream) is quite easy to prepare: it's a simple egg-cream dessert. The only difficulty is in making the delicious crunchy caramel layer on top. The perfect crème brulée (for me) is a cold and soft cream, with on top a nice hot caramel crust. This is a completely new version of the former recipe, with video.
