Halve the chicory, remove the stem, and finely chop the chicory. Slice the banana and mix it with the chicory and lemon juice in a bowl. The 2 tablespoons of milk are best whisked well with the honey in a cup. Instead of milk, you can also use yogurt or cream, whatever you have in the fridge. Mix the honey and milk with the chicory and banana slices. Let it sit for a few minutes and then divide it between the bowls. Sprinkle generously with flaked almonds, if desired. I mixed the remaining “sauce” in the bowl with a teaspoon of raspberry jam and drizzle it sparingly over the salad. This creates a nice decorative color contrast.
