Servings: persons

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (preferably freshly grated)
10 large Belgian endive heads, roots trimmed and outer leaves discarded
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 teaspoon flaky sea salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup creme fraiche
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 pound (about 4 thin slices) prosciutto
1/2 cup crumbled Gorgonzola cheese

1
1. Preheat the oven to 300u00b0. In a large skillet set over medium heat, add the butter, sugar and nutmeg and stir until the butter is melted. Add the endive heads and the lemon juice and cook, stirring occasionally, until the leaves begin to wilt slightly and the liquid is almost evaporated, 3 to 4 minutes. Pour in the white wine and stir to coat the endive heads. Season with the salt and pepper.

2. To an 8-by-8-inch square baking dish, add the endive heads in a single layer. In a small bowl, mix together the creme fraiche and the heavy cream and spread the mixture evenly over the top of the endives. Lay the prosciutto on top of the endives, overlapping the pieces slightly, and sprinkle the Gorgonzola evenly over the top. Loosely cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake until the endive is tender and a paring knife easily slips into the center of the largest head, about 1 hour.

3. Remove the foil and adjust the oven rack to the uppermost position. Turn the broiler to high. Broil until the cheese is browned and the prosciutto is crisp, 3 to 4 minutes (watch the cheese closely, as broiler intensities vary). Remove the dish from the oven and cool slightly before serving.
