Stage 1 - 10 min.
Thin endive tart

Prepare the fried endives and ham


Preheat the oven to 430°F (220°C).

Prepare 750 g endives (head of chicory), but leave raw, rather than blanching.

Pour 3 tablespoons olive oil into a frying pan on medium heat. When hot, fry the endive halves for a few minutes on each side until nicely browned.

Set aside.

Eat warm or cold with a good green salad and french dressing (vinaigrette), for example.
Remarks
If you would prefer a slightly milder flavour, you can blanch the endives.
