Notes
This dish is a feast for the eyes and the taste buds! It’s a luscious dish of contrasts: The tart of the lemon & labne with the sweet of the fig; the crunch of the pistachio with the silky smooth labne & oil; the heat of the chilli with the cool of the mint & labne.
When you need to bring a dish and have worn out your old favourites, give this a go – it will be the hit of the party and shhh! don’t tell anyone but it is really, really easy to make!
If you run out of time or are making this at the last minute, you can find premade Labne at some gourmet and fresh provisions stores.
