BAKED FIGS

Ingredients (serves 2):

• 6 figs

• 80 g brie or goat cheese

• 3 sprigs of thyme

• 4 tbsp honey

Method:

Preheat the oven to 190 C/170 fan/5 gas mark.

Cut the stems off of the figs. Use a paring knife to cut an "X" in the top of each fig, stopping about 2/3 of the way down.

Gently open the fig and stuff with a piece of brie.

Place stuffed figs in a baking tray. Top with a sprinkle of thyme, drizzle with honey and bake for 8-12 minutes, until warm and cheese is beginning to soften.

Serve immediately, either on their own, with a simple green salad or with slices of crusty bread. Bon appetit!
