Grilled figs recipe
Figs are in season in South Africa and they bring back fond memories of my childhood.
I haven’t eaten them since and for some reason I remembered the taste and thought it a great idea to add to my son’s birthday party menu. Many people aren’t fond of the fruit so I thought I’d add a savory twist to it. A party hit!
