Belgium endive recipe Ingredients
Braised Belgian Endive
Ingredients
• 3 tablespoons butter
• Pinch sugar
• 4 heads Belgian endive, browned or damaged leaves removed and halved
lengthwise
• 3 tablespoons white wine
• 1/4 to 1/2 cup chicken broth or stock
• 1 lemon, juiced
• 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
• Salt and ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves
Melt the butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. When the butter
is melted, sprinkle in the sugar. Place the endive in the butter-sugar
mixture, cut side down. Cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes,
lowering the heat if the butter starts to burn. Turn the endives over
and brown the other side, about 3 to 5 more minutes. Turn the endive
back over and add in the white wine and cook until reduced by half,
about 2 minutes. Add the chicken broth, cover and cook until tender
and the endives can be easily pierced with a knife, about 15 minutes.
If the pan gets too dry, add a tablespoon of water.
Uncover and add the lemon juice and thyme and bring to a simmer for
1 minute. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Add the parsley,
toss and serve.
