- Fresh rosemary from the garden
- High-quality olive oil
Instructions
- Prepare the Dates and Figs:
- Start by gently washing the fresh figs and dates under cold water. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
- Slice each date lengthwise to create an opening, making sure not to cut them into halves completely. Remove the pit if necessary.
- Similarly, make a small cut on the top of each fig to create a space for stuffing.
- Create the Vegan Feta and Walnut Filling:
- In a mixing bowl, crumble the vegan “feta” cheese using a fork to achieve a crumbly texture.
- Chop the walnuts into small pieces and add them to the crumbled “feta.”
- Finely chop the fresh rosemary leaves and sprinkle them over the mixture.
- Gently toss the ingredients together until they are well combined.
- Stuff the Dates and Figs:
- Take a small amount of the “feta” and walnut filling and stuff it into each date’s opening, ensuring it sits neatly.
- Do the same for the figs, filling the small space you created at the top with the delightful mixture.
- Drizzle with Olive Oil:
- Arrange the stuffed dates and figs on a serving platter.
- Drizzle a generous amount of high-quality olive oil over the stuffed fruits. The oil adds a luscious touch to the combination of flavors.
- Presentation and Serving:
- Garnish the platter with a few sprigs of fresh rosemary for an attractive presentation.
- Pair this vegan platter with a glass of your favorite wine to complement the rich and diverse flavors.
