- 8 Ripe figs, stalks trimmed
- 4 tbsp Balsamic vinegar
- 2 tbsp Olive oil, plus extra for drizzling
- Finely grated zest and juice of 1 lemon
- 1 tbsp Fresh thyme, chopped
- Parmesan shaves
- 50 g Arugula leaves
|
- Cut each fig lengthways into four wedges. Make a marinade by whisking the balsamic vinegar, olive oil and lemon juice with salt and pepper to taste.
- Stand the fig wedges up in the middle of a large shallow serving dish, keeping them close together. Scatter the lemon zest and thyme on top, then drizzle with the marinade. Leave to stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- To serve, lightly torn arugula leaves round the figs, scatter with Parmesan shaves, and drizzle with a little olive oil.
