How should you serve dried fig with walnut?

What is Dried fig with walnut?
Dried fig with walnut is a simple Turkish and Eastern Mediterranean snack: dried figs are opened or split and filled with walnut pieces. The fruit is chewy and richly sweet, while the walnut adds a mild, earthy flavour and a crisp bite. It is often enjoyed as it is, rather than prepared as a cooked dish.
In Turkey it may be served with tea, offered to guests, or eaten between meals; elsewhere, it also fits a snack plate with coffee, cheese or plain yogurt. It provides energy and fibre, with some fat from the walnuts. Its concentrated sweetness makes a small portion satisfying, and pairing it with unsweetened yogurt can make for a more balanced snack.
