    This fig carpaccio is very easy and surprising and ready in only 15 minutes. And except for the figs I had everything available at home, so I didn't need a lot of preparation. I still had bacon leftovers from my coq au vin and I have always different kind of walnuts at home. So I had only to buy the feta and the figs.

    The inspiration for this recipe comes from two sources. The first one is the garden of my sister. A few weeks ago she showed me the first two ripe figs in het own garden. Secondly I saw a fresh fig carpaccio on the Dutch blog "Onze Franse keuken" (our French kitchen). Both impulses inspired me to make this recipe.

    Are you also already worrying about the menu for Christmas? Maybe you can also find to inspiration in the following recipes:

    • smoked chicken with avocado
    • salad of chicory and roasted figs
    • filled persimmon
    • chicory salad with autumn fruits
    • smoked salmon blinis

    If you speak Dutch, you can find the Dutch version of this recipe on gerechtenweb.blog.
