Figs and Raspberry Coulis with Ice Cream and Cream instructions

1. Put the raspberries in a small pan, cover with the icing sugar and start to warm up on a medium heat. They will start to get soft and break down, stir every now and then..
2. When soft, transfer into a bowl and blend briefly until smooth with a blender. Don't be tempted to over-blend, or you will start to break the seeds and that will discolour your coulis! Once ready, pass it through a sieve to retain the excess seeds, and then add the Port (this is not mandatory, but it gives it a nice kick as well as the right consistency!). Refrigerate..
3. Chop the figs into quarters, serve them in a circle on the plate, with the ice cream in the middle, and then cover with a splash of the raspberry coulis. If you want you can also add a dollop of whipped cream for extra-indulgence ;).
