I made a very simplified version of this recipe, which I recommend. We made two servings this way: we tossed six halved figs in a little olive oil, grilled them for about four minutes per side, and then let them sit on the grill (with no heat) to keep them warm while we ate dinner. <br/><br/>When we were ready for dessert, we poured an undrained Greek yogurt into a bowl, then did up another, then added the figs to the bowls, frizzling a tiny, tiny amount of honey over the top. We skipped the hazelnuts. <br/><br/>An outstanding dish, one which we will make whenever we see figs at the farmer's market!
