My fig tree in the back garden is doing very well and I’m ready to harvest the fruit. It amazes me every year that I can grow figs here, that they ripen and that we have so many.

Today I managed to pick just enough for one of my recipes, it is for fig chutney from Really nice recipes. It is only one of many recipes, next time I’ll try another one.

Nice and easy to make and very tasty. It improves with keeping so I have to put it away and wait for a few months .
