Steps:
- Wash the Belgian endives. Remove outer leaves. Cut each Belgian endive in half lengthwise.
- Pour the olive oil or the butter in a pan over a medium heat. Add the Belgian endives, salt and pepper. Saute about 5 minutes turning the Belgian endives over a couple times to get them brown.
- Add the nutmeg, minced garlic and sugar. Continue to cook for another minute or so, turning them over once.
- Add a little water and continue to cook over until the endives become tender (about 10 to 15 minutes more). Turn them over from time to time to get all sides sauteed but be gentle since endives have a tendency to fall apart (like onions) when cooked.
- Adjust the seasoning. Serve them and enjoy!

Steps:
- In a heavy skillet over high flame, melt half of the butter. Season endive. Place 4 halves of the endive cut-side down and cook until browned. Repeat with remaining butter and endive. Place endive, cut-side up in a gratin dish. Pour stock around endive, cover with aluminum foil, and bake in 400 degree oven for 15 minutes. Season again with salt and pepper.

Steps:
- To continue cooking on the stovetop, reduce the heat to low. Let the endives cook, undisturbed, until they are very tender, about 30 minutes.
- To finish cooking in the oven, put the pan in a 375 F oven (make sure the pan is oven-safe) and cook for 30 to 40 minutes. (This method is more likely to result in more evenly browned endives.)
- Enjoy.

Steps:
- Combine stock, orange juice, liqueur, salt, and pepper in a large, shallow, nonreactive saucepan. Bring to a boil, and add endive. Cover endive with cheesecloth to keep it submerged, reduce heat to medium low, and cover; simmer until tender, about 45 minutes.
- Transfer endive to a plate, and cover with cheesecloth to keep warm. Continue simmering liquid until syrupy and slightly thick, about 20 minutes.
- Slice heads of endive in half lengthwise; add to syrup. Add orange slices, and toss to coat. Toss again, and serve.

SAUTéED ENDIVE WITH BALSAMIC BUTTER
Searing the endives so they retain some crispness, then topping them with balsamic butter, gives this dish, adapted from the cookbook "Eat in My Kitchen" by Meike Peters, its panache. Because it's hard to make less balsamic butter than is called for, you wind up with enough for about a dozen endives, not just three; the endives portion of the recipe can be easily expanded to match, making this a great dish for entertaining. Or, use the leftover butter to top fish, roasted carrots and such. The butter keeps well in the refrigerator but should be used at room temperature; heating may cause it to break down.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a heavy skillet. Add endive halves, cut side down, and sear on medium-high heat for a couple of minutes per side, turning once, until golden brown but still somewhat firm in the middle. Salt to taste, transfer to a serving dish and tent with foil to keep warm.
- Simmer vinegar in a small saucepan for about a minute. Remove from heat and whisk in butter bit by bit. Whisk in sugar and, if desired, some salt and pepper.
- Drizzle some of the balsamic butter on endives, strew with marjoram and dust with pepper. Serve. Remaining balsamic butter can be refrigerated for future use.
