I have eaten this before but I can't remember the name - mustard leaves perhaps? They have a peppery, spicy taste a bit like rocket but stronger. Looks like flat leaf parsley or coriander but obviously it's neither of those. Delicious just with some olive oil and tomatoes. Picture here (the green leaves obviously, not the steak!) : -)

Is it watercress???

No, the leaves are smaller and not quite as dark green as watercress. I googled mustard cress but there seems to be some confusion between cress (like you get in egg and cress sandwiches) and mustard..."The happiest of people don't necessarily have the

It's flat leaf parsley I think. I'm pretty sure.
Definitely not endive. It's not rocket either.0
