This recipe would make a lovley side dish to your Christmas of Thanksgiving turkey. In fact the recipe source (‘Good Food’ magazine December 2005) suggests to serve this at Christmas. It serves 8 as a side dish together with another side dish. However, it can also be served as a main dish as I did. It will serve 3 then. We had this as a main course together with ‘wild rice mix’ (longgrain rice with wild rice pieces in it). Lovely!

From npr.org. Artistic yet easy. For a vegan version substitute agave for the honey. I gave the salad more of a Middle Eastern flavor with the addition of rose water in the dressing. To avoid confusion, the endive called for in this recipe refers to the cone-shaped variety (looks like a bullet or small ear of corn.) I used a head of white endive with the maroon/purple colored outer leaves.
This salad is so attractive sitting by each place. You can vary the filling to suit your taste – make it hotter, add a dressing, salt & pepper it etc.
My mother used to make endive salad (witlof salade) in different ways; I thought I share them with you. She used to use mayonnaise but I usually use the sour cream. I would think you can use your own favorite dressing on this but I would suggest you make it a creamy one. Use as much dressing on this as you like, the 3 tablespoons are just a guide line. I sometimes cheat and buy the beets in a jar! The amount of this salad depends on the size of the endive and the beets.
