Chef's Tip
In place of biltong use crispy bacon pieces or for vegetarians ripe avocado slices.
Instructions
- Line 8 medium size plates with rocket leaves. Reserve a few. Cut the figs lengthways into quarters or eighths. Dot fig wedges here and there on leaves. Scatter the finely sliced biltong over the salad. Crumble the blue cheese and add it to the plates.
- Finish with reserved rocket leaves. Shake the vinaigrette well and drizzle over the salads just before they go to the table.
