Directions
Figs for 1001 Nights,Another Nigella offering that I’m posting so I don’t lose, as I’m planning to make a lot of this in a few months when the fig tree in our garden bears its luscious offerings!,Fabulous!!!! A galaxy of stars!!!!! I have been wanting to try this for a long time and I never could find any fresh figs when I was thinking about it. So today used dried figs. It tasted so wonderful!!!! The butter sauce with the rose water and orange water enhanced the flavor of the fig. I loved the aroma of the rose water and orange water when the sauce was cooking. And then to add mascarpone cheese and the balancing accent of salty pistachios, it was to die for!!!!! Will definitely make again and again. My neighbor has a fig tree but it is a baby and when that thing starts giving off figs, I am bringing over all these ingredients and what a delight that will be to share this recipe. Thanks so much for posting!!!!!!
