Grilled endive

I've been on the lookout for endive for some time, as I wanted to try braising it, but its always pretty pricey. So I spotted some on a market stall at a good price and bagged it.
Rather than braising it, I looked at the next door recipe in Leith's Vegetable Bible for grilled.
Lemon juice, olive oil, seasoning, oregano - quarter the endive, place under grill until the leaves begin to catch.
Fantastic flavour - the bitterness mellowed, but left plenty of flavour - the lemon and oregano were beautiful with it.
Ate this with a vegetable soup I made up of fridge leftovers: leek, carrot, parsnip, celery, potato, onion - no stock - just plenty of seasoning, bay and thyme (and a bit of butter). Also threw in some red lentils and pearl barley for health.
Good eating.
