Ingredients

  • 6 large figs (or 12 small ones)
  • 1 cup roasted, shelled pistachios
  • 1 L good quality vanilla ice cream
  • 6 tsp raw sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat the grill to 200°C and line a tray with foil.
  • Cut the figs in half. If they’re large, cut them in quarters. Arrange them cut side up on the tray and sprinkle each with a little sugar.
  • Grill the figs for 5 to 10 minutes until they start to caramelise on the top. They can burn easily with the sugar on top, so keep an eye on them.
  • Serve the figs warm or at room temprature with pistachios sprinkled on top.
