Fig and Fennel Roll
Use soft, dried figs for this, not the hard ones. I used fig syrup to bind it together a bit, but date syrup or honey would work just as well.
Ingredients
- 200 gms soft dried figs
- 1 cup walnuts pecans or almonds would probably work just as well
- 2 1/2 tsp fennel seeds
- 1-2 tbsp fig syrup or date syrup, or honey
- pinch of salt
Instructions
- Cut the figs into quarters and place with all the other ingredients, except the fig syrup, into a processor. Whizz until very finely mulched up.
- Check consistency and add enough syrup to bind the mixture together.
- Remove from bowl, place on grease-proof paper and roll into a firm log, twisting the ends of the paper together tightly.
- Alternatively, roll it into balls and then roll them in crushed nuts.
- Refrigerate over night to allow it to firm up completely.
- Serve on a cheese platter.
