4 Whole Belgian endives;

8 Scampi tails; shelled

on a lightly floured counter and line an 8" springform pan with it. Cover
the dough with a sheet of parchment paper and top with dried beans
or rice in order to blind bake for 20 minutes. Discard beans and paper.

and add the wine, olive oil, salt and pepper. Bake covered for 30 minutes.
When the endives are cooked, remove them from their cooking juices and
arrange them in the pastry crust; place the scampi tails between them. Beat
the eggs with the cream, salt and pepper in a small bowl and pour over the
endives and scampi. Raise the oven temperature to 400 degrees. Bake for
about 20 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden.
