Instructions
Step 1
Peel and core the apples then cut them into pieces, quarter the figs and set both aside
Step 2
Roll the puff pastry sheet out and use the lid of the pan to cut a circle out of it
Step 3
Preheat the pan on medium-high heat and add the sugar, cook for 3-4 mins mixing continuously until it dissolves and starts bubbling. Continue cooking until the colour of the sugar deepens and bubbles become bigger. When the caramel starts smoking it is ready - remove from the heat and mix in the chilled butter until melted

Mix in the apples and the pistachios with the caramel, then arrange the figs between the apples
Step 5
Gently place the pastry on top and using a spoon tuck the edges around the apples

Cut a couple of small holes in the pastry using a knife to allow steam to escape and bake in a preheated oven at 190ºC for 30-40 mins until golden brown and crispy
Step 7
Once ready place a serving dish on top of the pan and flip the tarte tatin upside down on it. Cut in 6 pieces and serve with ice-cream and dusting of icing sugar
