Ingredients:

Serving

24 -30 fresh figs , medium to large
6 -9 oz blue cheese , such as stilton
9 oz walnut halves, roughly chopped
2 tbsp clear runny honey
6 tbsp walnut oil
1 tbsp sherry wine vinegar
salt
black pepper
fresh fig leaf (to garnish )

Directions:

Toasted Walnuts:.
In a large, heavy frying pan, over a high heat, toast the walnuts for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove and set aside to cool.
Honey Drizzle Dressing.
Put the vinegar and a good pinch of salt and black pepper in a screw-top jar and shake until the salt has dissolved. Add the honey and walnut oil, then shake again to emulsify – the emulsion will hold for ten minutes or so, but give it another jiggle just before you use it to dress the salad.
Salad:.
Wipe the fresh figs gently, and cut them in half. Arrange them on a large platter, OR on individual plates - allowing 4 to 5 fresh figs per person, depending on the size.
Sprinkle 1 to 1 1/2 ozs of crumbled or sliced blue cheese per person, over the top of the fresh figs.
Scatter the chopped,toasted walnuts over the fig salad.
Just before serving, drizzle the honey dressing over the salad, and garnish each plate with 1 - 2 fresh fig leaves if available.
Serve with crusty bread and butter and mixed herb and salad leaves.
Can also be served as a dessert/cheese course combined.
