French home cooking classic.
Endives au jambon, or in other words endives wrapped in ham and covered in gratinated cheese sauce.
I worry this will seem weird to anyone who isn't french/grew up with this dish but, if so, please hear me out. The endives soften but keep a bite and provide bitterness and freshness to contrast with the classic comforting flavour of ham and cheesy béchamel.
