Braised Chicory

Ingredients

Chicory - 12 pieces

Safflower Oil - 2 tablespoons

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Remove the stems from the chicory, rinse it, and place it in a pot, covering it with water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil. In another pot, bring an equal amount of salted water to a boil. Once the chicory boils, transfer it to another pot to avoid bitterness. Bring the water to a boil and cook for another 15 minutes.

Step 2

Melt the butter along with the sunflower oil, stir in the flour, and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Then slowly pour in the broth, add the shank, chicory, and a pinch of freshly grated nutmeg. Cook for 10-12 minutes. Then remove the shank and transfer the chicory with the sauce to a warmed dish.
