CARAMELIZED FIGS WITH LAVENDER HONEY AND CREAM

Steps:

• Combine honey, lemon zest, and lavender in small saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer.
• Continue simmering for 1-2 minutes stirring occasionally.
• Remove from heat and let stand for 10-15 minutes.
• Meanwhile arrange fig halves in a cake pan or on a baking sheet and broil, 4-6 inches from the flame, for 5-8 minutes or until they are bubbling and just slightly brown on top.
• Strain honey mixture into a small bowl and add the lemon juice.
• Pour heavy cream into a medium bowl and whisk until just slightly thickened.
• The cream should still be runny--you don't want to make whipped cream.
• Place approximately 1 tablespoon of the cream in the center of each dessert plate, arrange four fig halves on top of the cream and spoon the strained honey mixture over them.
• Garnish with fresh mint if desired.
