Make the bรฉchamel sauce: Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to form a roux. Gradually whisk in the warm milk until smooth. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until thickened. Season with salt, white pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg.

Wrap each cooked endive in a slice of ham. Arrange the ham-wrapped endives in the prepared baking dish.

Pour the bรฉchamel sauce evenly over the endives. Sprinkle the grated cheese over the top.

Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and the cheese is golden brown and melted.
