Ricotta Figs And Macadamia Nuts
- 4 large or 8 small figs
- 1 tablespoon ricotta cheese per fig
- 1/4 ~ 1/2 teaspoon Lemon Myrtle*
- 1/2 cup grape nectar
- macadamia nut pieces (toasted) for garnish

- Trim the fat end of each fig so that the fruit stands up-right. Cut the thin end with a cross to open up the figs but still keeping them in one piece. Mix the Oz Lemon into the ricotta, preferably at least 2 hours before serving as this allows the flavours to really penetrate the cheese. Place a tablespoonful of the prepared cheese in each cross cut fig. Grill until the figs are warm and
- the cheese just bubbles. Plate up the figs, drizzle with the grape nectar and garnish with the toasted macadamia nut pieces. Serve immediately with a strong coffee for that hint of bitterness to add to the complexity of taste.
