and marinate overnight (at least 2 - 3 hours). Reserve marinade and

of the almonds and pistachio paste, then process in an ice cream
machine.

4. To serve, put the figs on a plate. Shape the chilled Creme
Anglaise into quenelles and add to the plates. Pour marinade over the
figs, add whipped cream mixed with sugar. Sprinkle with almonds
(chopped) and serve.
