These lacy, crisp wafers made out of just freshly grated Parmesan cheese are called frico. You can serve them on their own, without the figs and honey if you'd like.
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 5 minutes
Ingredients:
- 2 cups freshly grated Parmesan or Pecorino cheese
- 2 ripe figs, sliced, or 8 Medjool dates, sliced
- 2 Tbsp. honey
Preparation:
Spray a nonstick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Make two circles of Parmesan cheese on the skillet, each about 4" across, just thick enough so you can't see the bottom through it. This should take about 2 tablespoons of the cheese.Cook on first side for 2 minutes, watching carefully, until the edges are golden. Carefully turn wafers and cook 1 minute longer. Gently flatten with spatula if they begin to curl or fold. Remove from pan and drain on paper towels. Repeat until all the cheese is used.
To serve, top each cheese wafer with some fig or date slices and drizzle with honey.
