Ingredients

4-6 chicory, halved, or quartered if large
50g butter
Splash of dry white wine
150ml vegetable stock, hot
2 tbsp finely chopped flatleaf parsley

Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C/fan 160°C/gas 4. Put the chicory, cut-side up, in an ovenproof dish. Dot all over with the butter and splash over the wine and stock.
Season with black pepper and a little salt, then cover with foil. Cook for 20-25 minutes, then remove the foil and cook for a further 10 minutes until really tender. Sprinkle with the parsley and serve.
