These are elegant canapés, ideal as nibbles for a New Year’s Eve party. You can make the fried brioche two days in advance; simply keep in an air-tight tin.
Ingredients:
125g (5 oz) section from an unsliced brioche loaf
20g (1 ½ tbsp) unsalted butter
150g (1/3 lb) soft goat’s cheese
50g (1/4 cup) full-fat soft cheese
a few sprigs of thyme
2 large or 3 medium figs, cut into wedges
clear honey, to drizzle
Method:
Cut the brioche into four chunky slices and use a 5cm cutter to stamp out 12 circles. Melt the butter in a frying pan and gently fry the brioche rounds until golden and crisp on both sides (flip over half way through).
Combine the goat’s cheese and soft cheese in a bowl and stir until thoroughly combined. Pick the leaves from most of the thyme sprigs, stir in and season well.
Spoon or pipe the cheese onto each disc of brioche and top with a fig wedge and a generous grinding of black pepper. Scatter over the remaining thyme and drizzle with honey just before serving.
