Grilled figs with goats’ cheese and honey

1 Preheat the oven grill to hot.

2 Wash and dry the figs. Remove the stems and place the figs upright on an oven tray.

3 With a sharp knife, cut a cross into the top of each fig and spread to open up the fig a bit, so it looks like a flower. Spoon a couple of teaspoons of goats' cheese into the opening on each fig.

4 Drizzle with a little olive oil and put under the grill until the cheese is melted and starting to brown a little. This should take less than 10 minutes. While the figs are still warm, drizzle them with the honey.

5 These figs could be added to a pile of spinach or rocket leaves for a delicious starter; or have them as an alternative to dessert with a cheese plate.
