Step 1 of 5
Walnut Stuffed Figs with Fig Syrup
Cut off the hard stalk ends from the figs, then halve each fig lengthwise.
Step 2
Place the figs cut-side up in a small frying or sauté pan and pour the water around them.
Step 3
Cook over medium heat until the figs are soft and cooked through, about 10–15 minutes. Transfer the figs to a serving dish.
Step 4
Add the sugar to the red fig juice remaining in the pan over medium heat. Stir continuously until the juice thickens to a syrup, about 2–3 minutes. Remove from heat.
Step 5
Press half a walnut into each fig half, then drizzle the syrup over the top. Serve warm or at room temperature.
