Ingredients:

200g Figs
7 strands Saffron
2 tsp Powder fort
250g Pastry dough
200ml Oil
100ml Honey
beaten egg


Method:

Dice the figs as finely as possible and mix them with the saffron and powder fort. Roll out the pastry and cut into medium-sized circles. Add a spoonful of pastry in the centre of one pastry circle, wet the outside with beaten egg and place a second pastry circle on top. Crimp the edges together and pierce the upper surface with a fork. Continue until all the figs mixture is used up. Fry the pies in hot oil until lightly browned and crispy then remove from the heat and drain on kitchen paper.

Meanwhile heat the honey in a saucepan and brush onto top of the pies. The pies can be eaten either hot or cold.
