Instructions

1.
Prepare the Jersey Royal potatoes by boiling them until tender. Let them cool slightly before thinly slicing.
2.
Lightly butter one side of each brioche slice with Jersey butter.
3.
Heat a grill pan or BBQ to medium heat.
4.
Place the buttered side of the brioche slices down on the grill pan. Grill for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and slightly toasted.
5.
While the brioche is grilling, gently warm the lavender honey in a small saucepan over low heat, being careful not to boil it. This will make it easier to drizzle.
6.
Once the brioche toast is ready, spread each slice with a tablespoon of fig jam.
7.
Arrange a few slices of the boiled Jersey Royal potatoes on top of the fig jam.
8.
Drizzle each toast with the warmed Jersey lavender honey.
9.
Garnish with fresh thyme leaves and/or a sprig of Rosemary, if desired, and serve immediately.

Chef's Tips

For a richer flavour, you can lightly toast the brioche slices in the oven before grilling.

If you don't have a grill pan, you can use a regular frying pan or toast the brioche in a toaster.

Adjust the amount of honey and fig jam to your preference.

Serve with a glass of chilled white wine or a sparkling cider from Jersey.
