Grilled Figs With Goat’s Cheese, Caramelised Onions And Serrano Ham
The sharpness of the cheese in this dish offsets the figs beautifully, while the strong, salty Serrano ham gives a Spanish flavour.

Total time:
24 minutes
to 33 minutes
Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 2 Medium red onions, sliced into rings
- 12 Figs
- 100g Soft goat’s cheese, sliced
- 160g Serrano or Parma ham
- 50g Rocket
Method
- Put the olive oil in a frying pan and warm over a low heat. Add the onions and cook, covered, for 15–20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- Cut the stems off the figs and slice in half lengthwise. Place them on a baking tray cut-side up and place under a hot grill for 2–4 minutes – just long enough to brown the figs a little and warm them through.
- Remove from the grill and cover the figs with the onion, then top with slivers of goat’s cheese. Put back under the grill for a further 2–4 minutes, until the cheese is bubbling and just turning golden. To serve, divide the Serrano ham, rocket leaves and fig halves between the plates.
