Belgian Endive au Gratin
INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)
• 8 heads Belgian endive, trimmed
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 cup milk
• 1 cup grated Gruyere cheese, divided
• 2 teaspoons grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, or amount to taste
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 8 slices deli-style ham
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1. Lightly grease a baking dish.
2. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil over medium-high
heat. Place the endives into the water. Cover, and cook until tender,
5 to 10 minutes.
3. Place the butter into a saucepan, and melt over medium heat. Whisk
in the flour, and stir until the mixture becomes paste-like and golden
brown. Gradually whisk the milk into the flour mixture, whisking constantly
until thick and smooth. Stir in 3/4 cup Gruyere cheese, Parmesan cheese,
nutmeg, salt, and pepper until well blended. Cook gently over medium-low
heat for 10 minutes, stirring frequently.
4. Preheat an oven broiler to low.
5. Drain the endives. Wrap each endive with a slice of ham, and place
into the prepared baking dish. Pour the cheese sauce over the endives.
Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup Gruyere cheese and parsley.
6. Cook the endives under preheated broiler until cheese is golden
brown and sauce bubbles, about 10 minutes.
