CHEAT'S BLINIS WITH JAMON AND FIGS


Figs need to marinate for 2 hours. Use prosciutto if you cannot get the serrano. 


INGREDIENTS
16 dried dessert figs, halved
1/4 (60 ml) Pedro Ximenez sherry or other sweet sherry
2 x 140 g packets pikelet bites
250 g mascarpone cheese
100 g sliced jamón serrano or prosciutto, cut into strips
Olive oil to drizzle
Chervil or flat-leaf parsley springs, to garnish

METHOD:
Soak the figs in the sherry for 2 hours or until they have absorbed all the liquid.
Place the pikelets on a platter and spread each with a little mascarpone. Add a small scroll of jamon and a piece of fig.
Sprinkle with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, drizzle over oil and garnish with chervil or parsley.
