Figs And Prosciutto Recipes

Steps:

• Arrange prosciutto in overlapping slices on a large platter. Place figs beside prosciutto, drizzle with vinegar, and garnish with fresh thyme sprigs.
• Sprinkle the Parmesan shavings over prosciutto and figs.

Steps:

• Halve the figs lengthways and put them, cut side down, without oil, in a hot griddle pan (or heavy-based frying pan) for 1 minute until charred. Sprinkle with balsamic vinegar and salt and black pepper to taste, and, while still warm, wrap each half in a little piece of prosciutto.
• Serve as canapés or a starter, garnished with shaved parmesan and fresh mint or rocket leaves.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
• Cut a small hole in the center of the flesh of each fig. Fill each hole with 1/4 teaspoon of goat cheese.
• Take a prosciutto slice and tear in half. Use 1 half to diagonally wrap around the fig, starting from the top. Tuck underneath at the ends. Repeat until all figs are wrapped. (Secure with toothpicks if necessary.) Place wrapped figs on prepared baking sheet, evenly spaced.
• In a small bowl, combine honey and pumpkin pie spice. Drizzle honey evenly over each fig.
• Place in the oven on the top rack and roast for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Cut the figs into 16 wedges and sit them in a non-metallic bowl. Mix together the oil and vinegar, then pour it over the figs. Season well with salt and pepper, and leave to marinate at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
• When the figs have marinated, thread each wedge on to a wooden skewer with some prosciutto, mozzarella and a basil leaf. The order in which you thread them is entirely up to you.
• Once you have made all 16, sit them on a plate and drizzle over the remaining marinade. Serve at room temperature rather than straight from the fridge, so all the flavours are at their best.

Steps:

• Mix filling ingredients together.
• Slice a small incision at the base of each fig. I place an eighth of mixture in each fig.
• Gentle wrap each fig so each is nestled holding in the stuffing.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place slices of prosciutto flat on parchment paper over a baking sheet. Bake about 13 minutes, or until fairly crisp. Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Break the prosciutto up into pieces and set aside.
• Assemble salad with the spinach and basil on the bottom. Top with figs and crispy prosciutto, and dress with balsamic vinegar and truffle oil, to taste.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Snip the hard stems off the figs and cut the figs in half lengthwise through the stem. With a small sharp knife, cut the prosciutto lengthwise into inch-wide strips. Wrap a strip of prosciutto around the center of each fig half, with the ends overlapping. Brush with olive oil and arrange cut-side up on a sheet pan.
• Roast the figs for 10 minutes, until the prosciutto is a little crisp and the figs are warmed through. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Toss fresh figs with 2 tablespoons oil in bowl. Arrange figs on rimmed baking sheet. Roast until figs are tender and shiny, about 12 minutes. (Do not roast dried figs.) Cool. Cut figs lengthwise in half.
• Whisk remaining 1/2 cup oil and vinegar in small bowl to blend. Add cheese and whisk to blend. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (Figs and dressing can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover separately and refrigerate. Bring to room temperature and rewhisk dressing before using.)
• Combine frisée, baby greens, watercress, prosciutto and walnuts in large bowl. Add dressing; toss to coat. Gently mix in figs. Transfer to serving bowl.
