Bought 2 lbs of fresh figs at the store yesterday, so it's going to be a figgy week around here.
Tonight:
Sirloin with roasted garlic and figs
Not sure yet what else I'll be doing over the next few days, but one dessert is in order, definitely. Maybe I'll stuff the figs with cheese & herbs to accompany a big salad?
At any rate, it's safe to say this little bout of kitchen experimenting is not one the kids are looking forward to.
Haha, figs.
Yes, figs. And the Turkish steak with garlic-fig sauce rocked.
Cooked vidalia onions in butter & olive oil, then added roasted garlic cloves, sea salt, black pepper and diced figs. Poured wine over it, and used the spoon to mash up figs & garlic cloves while wine simmered off. (I'm getting hungry now, just talking about it.)
And tonight, the figs will be stuffed with soft goat cheese and rosemary, and served alongside a couscous salad with feta, cucumbers, bell peppers & black olives.
