Honeyed Fig Tarts

   

Ingredients: 

• 2 cups maida / all purpose flour
  
• ¼ cup sugar 
• 1 pinch salt 
• ¾ cup cold butter 
• ½ cup cold water 
• 2 cups fresh figs cut into smaller wedges 
• 1/3 cup honey 
• ½ tsp fresh thyme leaves 
• 1 tsp lemon juice 

Method: 

1. You can prepare the tart dough in a food processor, or simply use your hands. Mix the maida with salt. cold butter, fine sugar and knead it using cold water. The dough will just be crumbly and tough. Wrap the dough in a cling foil and refrigerate for a minimum of 30 minutes. 
2. In the meantime, preheat the oven to 400°C. Once the dough has been in the fridge for long enough, dust some flour and flatten the dough. Now if you have one large tart mould, then flatten the dough into the size of your tart mould. If you have smaller ones, then change the size and shape accordingly. Place the dough into the greased tart moulds, poke a few holes using a fork and refrigerate while other preparations are on. 
3. Take a large mixing bowl, and add the figs just sparing a few aside. Add the honey, lemon juice, fresh thyme and a pinch of salt. Mix everything well. 
4. Remove the tart moulds from the refrigerator. Spread a generous layer of the honeyed fig mix onto the tarts. 
5. Now transfer the tart moulds into the preheated oven for about 35 minutes or until the tart is golden brown. 
6. Remove from the oven, and let it stand for a few minutes. Slowly de-mould the tart and decorate the remaining fig pieces on them, you can even sprinkle some fresh thyme on it. Serve while warm.
