--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  8       md           Heads Belgian endive
  3       tb           Unsalted butter
  2       tb           Flavorless cooking oil

 CUT EACH ENDIVE IN HALF lengthwise and set aside. Heat the butter and oil

 Turn endives and brown the other side, about 4 minutes. (Do this in two
 batches, if necessary.) Add the broth, sprinkle with salt and cook until
 the liquid is reduced, about 10 minutes. Transfer the endive and its juices
 to a serving platter. Serve immediately.
