Preparation

  1. Step 1

    In a small bowl, stir together orange juice, lemon juice, sugar, pepper and vanilla bean.

  2. Step 2

    Place an inverted 3-cup souffle dish in the center of a 10-inch pie plate to create a ring mold. Pour the liquid mixture into the dish.

  3. Step 3

    Arrange the figs in a circle, leaning them against the souffle dish with the stems facing up. Invert a second 10-inch pie plate over the first to form a cover.

  4. Step 4

    Cook at 100 percent power in a high-power oven for 5 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Remove from oven and uncover. Let figs cool before serving warm, or let cool completely. Serve with vanilla ice cream or heavy cream.

Tip
