- Place the garlic, cream, milk and thyme sprigs in a small saucepan and heat to almost boiling point then stir in the cheese to melt. Remove from the heat and infuse for 30 minutes
- Reheat the mixture and soak the gelatine leaves in cold water for 5 minutes to soften. Squeeze gelatine to remove excess water then add to the warm cream mixture. Stir well to dissolve and strain the mixture into a jug.

To make the salad dressing:
- Mix together all the ingredients for the dressing and shake/mix well to combine.
- Make 6 salads on 6 serving plates using the figs, salad leaves and the nuts. Run a knife around panna cotta moulds, then turn out onto the plates. Alternatively dip moulds briefly into warm water then turn out onto plates
- Drizzle with the dressing and serve with warm bruschettas
