How to Make Saffron Scented Fresh Figs With Cinnamon And Honey
- In a medium saucepan, combine 300ml cold water, 100g granulated sugar, a pinch of saffron threads (about 1/4 teaspoon), 1 cinnamon stick (about 4 inches), and 50g honey. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Gently bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the syrup has thickened slightly and reduced in volume.
- Add 500g fresh figs (halved or quartered if large) to the simmering syrup. Cook for another 5 minutes, or until the figs are tender but still hold their shape.
- Remove the pan from the heat and carefully remove the cinnamon stick. Discard.
- Serve the figs warm, drizzled generously with the saffron syrup. A dollop of plain yogurt (optional, about 2 tablespoons per serving) complements the sweetness beautifully.
