This is a quick and simple pudding to prepare that relies on the figs being at their very best.听 If you can鈥檛 find goat鈥檚 curd then mixing a spoonful of honey through some Greek yoghurt will give great results too.听 For a diary-free option, try coconut yoghurt.

Serves 4

Prep time: 30 mins inc. 20 mins standing time

Ingredients

Method

Combine the goat鈥檚 curd and the lemon zest in a large bowl and stir to combine the flavours.听 Allow to stand for 20 mins before using.

Put the marmalade and water into a small pan and gently heat to make a wetter, more 鈥榮poonable鈥� marmalade sauce.听 (If you feel your marmalade is runny enough, you can skip this step).

Spread the goat鈥檚 curd over the base of a flat serving dish.听 Dollop three-quarters of the marmalade over the goat鈥檚 curd in an uneven fashion, making lovely bright patches over the white curd.

Take each fig, remove the hard stalk and then tear each one in half.听 Place the figs in a mixing bowl and lightly dress with the remaining marmalade.

Spoon the dressed figs over the curd, making sure you spread them evenly over the curd.听 Sprinkle the pine nuts and torn mint over the top and serve.

Blood Orange Marmalade

This super-easy recipe makes for a deliciously bitter marmalade that is great with a slice of buttered sourdough and a breakfast martini.听 Using powdered pectin rather than relying on the natural pectin in the seeds will create a more consistent result, so we have included it here.听 If you want, you can try collecting the seeds, wrapping them in a muslin cloth and adding them to the pan at the first stage.听 The natural pectin in the seeds will help the marmalade set.

Makes 1 Large Jar

Prep time: 10 mins

Cooking time: 30 mins

Ingredients

12 blood oranges

800g caster sugar

250ml blood orange juice

50ml lemon juice

2 star anise

1 cinnamon stick

3 tbsp pectin powder

100ml water

Method

Sterilise a 2 litre Kilner jar by scrubbing well and then rinsing with boiling water.听 (Alternatively you can use straight from the dishwasher.)

Cut the blood oranges in half and then slice each half into 6 half-moon slices, around 2mm thick.听 Remove any seeds and place the orange slices into a large stainless steel pan.

Add the sugar, orange and lemon juice, star anise and cinnamon to the pan and bring to the boil over a high heat.听 Reduce the temperature and cook at a simmer for 20-25mins until the sugar has turned to a shiny syrup.听 Meanwhile dissolve the pectin in the water and set aside.

Increase the heat and bring back to a boil.听 Stir in the pectin and boil for 5 mins.听 Turn off the heat and leave in the pan to cool down slightly.

When the jam is cool enough to handle, pour into the sterilised jar and seal.听 Once opened it will keep for up to 3 weeks.
