Easy Roasted Figs and Goat Cheese

Figs roasted with a Parma ham and goat's cheese are one of my favourite starters. Sweet fruits composed with salty Parma ham and delicate goat's cheese are heaven. If you feel a bit more adventurous you can replace goat cheese with something stronger - French Roquefort or Italiano Gorgonzola.
