This is my mother's recipe. My mother's policy is that simple is best.

I make this with a whole pack of figs (each pack has about 5-7).
Depending on your preference, you could replace the cinnamon for vanilla. I recommend star anice. Using white wine will give a clear taste, red wine will give a complex mature taste. Both versions are delicious. Recipe by La Land

Ingredients

6 servings
  1. 6Figs (see tips)
  2. 100 mlWine (red or white, whichever you prefer)
  3. 45 gramsGranulated sugar
  4. 1 tspLemon juice
  5. 4light shakes Cinnamon

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Gently wash the figs, pat dry, and cut off the hard tips.

  2. 2

    Add Step 1 and all of the ingredients up to the granulated sugar, and turn on the heat. After it come to a boil, reduce to a low, cover with a sheet of aluminum foil, and continue boiling for 15 minutes.

  3. 3

    Flip over the fruit from time to time. Add lemon juice and cinnamon in the last two minutes. They are soft so be careful not to crush them.

  4. 4

    Tip: Add lemon juice after the figs' juices have seeped out. This will improve the color and have a prettier finish.

  5. 5

    Let cool in the pot. Transfer to a container after it cools, chill in the fridge, and it is done. I made it with red wine.
