ReceptnaptárSika psita me meli (honey thyme roasted figs with yogurt)
Honey-baked figs are a real treat at the end of the Greek summer: the figs turn soft and syrupy from the honey, and the thyme adds its fragrance. With cool Greek yogurt and toasted walnuts they work as both dessert and breakfast. Ten minutes of work, and your guests will think you were at it for hours.

Tips
- Choose ripe but not too soft figs: if they're overripe, they fall apart in the oven.
- You can add a pinch of cinnamon or a drop of orange juice to the honey.
- Toast the nuts in a dry frying pan for 2-3 minutes before scattering them over the figs: they'll be much more fragrant.
