Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Endive

    Rinse the Belgian endives under cold water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. Cut off the base of each endive and remove any damaged outer leaves.

  2. 2

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until it is crispy. Once cooked, remove the bacon from the skillet and place it on a paper towel to drain excess grease. Chop the bacon into small pieces.

  3. 3

    Make the Filling

    In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, chopped chives, and cooked bacon. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Fill the Endives

    Using a small spoon, carefully fill each Belgian endive leaf with the cream cheese mixture, ensuring they are generously filled.

  2. 5

    Serve

    Arrange the filled endive leaves on a serving platter. Optionally, garnish with additional chives or a sprinkle of black pepper before serving.
