Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

Figs – Deluxe

Clean the figs and cut into eighths. Then arrange them in a fan shape on two plates. Whisk the Cremefine with the vanilla sugar and set aside. Melt the sugar in a non-stick pan without fat. Use a slightly higher heat if you like, but be careful – you don’t want it to caramelize completely. Once the sugar has completely melted, pour a little orange juice into the pan, making sure it covers the bottom. Be careful of the steam! At first, this syrupy sauce will bubble a lot; a little more orange juice usually helps. When the sauce has the right consistency (I found it similar to buttermilk), add half a teaspoon of cinnamon – it’s best to use a small amount, as otherwise it can become bitter. The sauce can be reduced further, depending on your taste. Drizzle the figs with the still-hot sauce and serve with the Cremefine (set aside).
