Nutritional values

Endive contains a lot of the soluble fiber inulin, which strengthens the beneficial intestinal bacteria and thus ensures good resistance. Inulin also makes cravings a thing of the past, because together with the bitter substances from endive it acts as an appetite suppressant.

To make the recipe vegetarian, you can use smoked tofu instead of pancetta. If you like to cook vegan, additionally replace the honey with maple syrup or another sweetener.

Clean, wash and halve the endive lengthwise. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a grill pan and grill endive halves on both sides for 3 minutes over medium heat.
