<\/p>\n

Cook over a gentle heat for 4 minutes until figs are soft but not falling apart. Remove figs with a slotted spoon and set aside. Cook liquid for a further 10 \u2013 15 minutes or until liquid is thick and coats the back of a metal spoon. The syrup will thicken as it cools downs. Set aside.<\/p>\n

For cake
<\/em>Beat butter, sugar and vanilla seeds together using an electric mixer until pale. Add eggs one at a time until well combined. Fold in the walnuts. Add the sifted flour and milk alternatively. If batter seems to thick add a few extra tablespoons of milk. Pour cake mixture into prepared tin.
Gently press down the cooled figs and drizzle 2 tablespoons of the cooled fig syrup onto figs to keep moist.
Bake for 55 – 60minutes or until cake is golden brown and cooked through.
Transfer to a rack to cool.
Serve warm or at room temperature.
Drizzle cake slices with warm poached fig syrup and whipped cream or ice-cream.<\/p>\n
