• ½ pt/300 ml sweet red wine
• 5 dried figs, chopped

Simmer the figs in the wine until tender, grind them, and strain the liquids into a saucepan. Add the remaining ingredients (with a little more wine if necessary to make the sauce runny).

Simmer briefly, and pour over a batch of lozenges made from the previous recipe, dish, and serve hot.
