Fresh Fig Crown with Cottage Cheese
Fresh figs, halved and layered cut-side out in a ring mould, need nothing but an overnight rest in the fridge to set into a sliceable crown: the seeds inside the fruit hold everything together on their own. A bowl of cottage cheese on the side turns it into a light, unusual breakfast centerpiece.

Ingredients
Method
Fill the Tupperware silicone ring mould with water and set aside.
Peel the figs and halve them.
Empty the mould and arrange a first layer of fig halves, cut side out, covering the base completely. Dust with one sachet of sugar substitute and press down gently.
Add a layer of fig halves around the ring, again with the cut side facing out, dust with another sachet and press down.
Continue layering the same way, packing the figs firmly and avoiding gaps between layers.
Cover the mould and refrigerate overnight.
Unmold directly onto a serving platter and serve with the cottage cheese in the center, or in a small bowl on the side.
