This quick starter takes no time to prepare when guests are about to arrive. The combined fresh flavour of the fig and strong sharp tang of the Blue Vein cheese make it perfect also to serve after the main course.
STEPS 1. On halved figs, top with a wedge of blue cheese and roasted walnut.
2. Dress with a simple dressing of equal parts of balsamic and olive oil.
3. Season with salt, pepper and enjoy!
About the author
Two Old Ducks was founded by Annette Long in 2006 to promote back to basics food – cooking from the pantry and garden for your family. I always felt that a couple of ‘old ducks’ conjured up a simple sharing of cooking together and of course enjoying the fruits of your labour.

This passion has lead to the birth of Two Old Ducks… http://www.twooldducks.com.au/
