Ingredients:
Cut a slice off the bottom of the chicory and scoop out the 1/2 inch white bitter part. Boil water, add the lemon juice and place the chicory heads in it. Again bring to a boil and cook the chicory for 5-6 minutes. Drain the heads, but keep 200 ml of the juices. Peel, boil and mash the potatoes. Melt the butter in a pan, mix in the flour and gradually add the juices. Mix in 100 grams of grated cheese, add nutmeg. Wrap each chicory head in ham and put them in a greased deep oven dish. Pour in the meat stock and over it half of the cheese sauce. Cover it with the mashed potatoes, sprinkle with nutmeg and add the rest of the cheese sauce. Top off with the remainder of the grated cheese and bake in a preheated oven at 225 C (440 F) for about fifteen minutes.
