Directions
- Wash the figs and pat them dry with a paper towel.

- Cook the figs for 3-5 minutes, until they start to soften and the cut sides become golden and caramelized.
- Flip the figs gently and cook for another 2 minutes on the other side.

- Garnish with chopped nuts if desired.
Notes

Can I use dried figs instead of fresh figs?
While fresh figs are best for this recipe due to their juiciness and soft texture, you can use dried figs in a pinch. If using dried figs, soak them in warm water for about 10 minutes to soften them before caramelizing.
