4 tb Clear honey
10 fl Rose wine
2 ts Rosewater
1 Strip lemon rind
2 oz Toasted flaked almonds
10 fl Creme fraiche
Garnish: Fresh lavender
Put all the figs in a shallow ovenproof dish and pour over the wine, honey,
1 teaspoon of rosewater and the strip of lemon rind. Cover and bake until
tender for about 15 minutes at 200C/gas 6. Remove from the oven and leave
to cool, then add the rest of the rosewater to the sauce.
To serve, cut each fig in a cross over the top, but not all the way through
and then dollop over some creme fraiche and sprinkle over some almonds.
Pour the sauce around the figs.
