Heaven in Your Mouth: Figs Wrapped in Prosciutto
Print recipe
Ingredients
- 4 fresh purple or green figs (washed, dried, stemmed, and cut in half)
- 2 slices of prosciutto
- 2 thin slices of English Stilton cheese (crumbled)
- 6 thin slices toasted walnut halves (chopped)
- Good quality extra virgin olive oil
- Good quality balsamic vinegar ((preferably aged, but not necessary))
Directions
First, toast the walnut halves at 375 °F in a cake pan for six to eight minutes—once you start smelling them, take them out. Toast extra to have on hand for the next time or for green beans. | |
For two plates, place four fig halves on each. | |
Take the slice of prosciutto, tear into four pieces, and wrap around each fig half. | |
Sprinkle on the Stilton and chopped walnut pieces | |
Drizzle with a tiny bit of olive oil (about one teaspoon on each plate) and then drizzle with a tiny bit of vinegar, too (a few drops). | |
Serve immediately and listen to your guest tell you how much he/she LOVES you! |
