Pushing the boundary with fruit and veg-chicory

Our broad bean experiment was successful and after the soup, we ate them steamed with a main course.

So onwards. There was a request for chicory and a kind friend sent us this link.

We blanched the chicory.

Then wrapped the chicory in ham, cheese and topped with breadcrumbs.

Grilled-all very easy.

It looked good but sadly, even some of my veggie lovers thought the chicory was bitter. Not such a success. The whole family liked the topping so might try this with leek in the future.
