Ingredients
- 50g whole almonds, toasted
- 250g dried figs, hard stalk removed, chopped
- 50g dried apricots, halved
- 50g walnuts, halved
- ½ tbsp brandy
- ½ tbsp clear honey
- pinch ground cloves
Method
Pulse the almonds in a food processor until most are finely chopped. Remove and transfer to a bowl. Whizz the figs until they form a sticky paste, then add this to the almonds with the remaining ingredients. Mix well, then shape into a sausage and allow to dry, uncovered, in the fridge or a cool, dry place for a week.
Wrap and tie in baking parchment if giving away, then slice and serve alongside your favourite cheeses. Will keep in a cool place for up to 2 months.
