FIGS STUFFED WITH GOAT CHEESE
Ingredients:
12 fresh figs
110 g soft goat cheese
1 teaspoon of soft goat's milk
salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup date syrup (can be substitutes with honey)
Preparation:
Preheat the oven then, cut the stems off the figs and cut an "X" in the top of each fig, up to the bottom third of the fruit. Place the figs on a baking tray lined with baking paper. If they are a little wobbly, cut a little off the bottom of the figs to make them stand up straight.
Place a goat's cheese in a piping bag and massage with warm hands until soft. Cut a small hole in one of the bottom corners of the bag and press the cheese into each fig, dividing it evenly between the 12 figs.
Lightly brush the figs with olive oil and sprinkle with a little salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Fry the figs until small brown spots appear on the goat's cheese. The date honey or honey should then be gently warmed in a small saucepan, easy to pour and warm but not hot.
Remove the figs from the oven and pour the warm date honey over them.
