Ideas for figs please

[Ruffello]

I bought some figs today from my local market and though they are luscious eaten as they are, I'd like to use some of them in a dessert. I may try baking them but would love to hear any other suggestions. Thanks!

Cut them in quarters nearly all the way through, put a square or two of seriously dark chocolate in the centre and either melt in the microwave or in a warm oven...yum.

Phwoar! Am definitely gonna try that one, mothership.

cut them the same way as Mother says, but put some soft goats cheese in the cuts and grill until cheese is soft and melty

or non-veggie version, do as above then wrap in parma ham before oven baking in hot oven for 10 mins

serve with salad

Stuff with cream cheese and wrap in Parma ham then put in oven for 10 mins mmmm

Figs are made for cheese

Gordon Ramsay slow roasted some this week, I can't remember exactly what he did but it looked lovely and he served them with ricotta.

Goats cheese and parma ham.
I'm not a fan of sweet and savoury mixed, but this I love.

Mmmmm.....

Mix marscapone and marsala. Bake the figs with some honey. Serve with the marscapone stuff on the side.
