Cooking instruction summary:

Line a dish with cling film - mine measured 6 x 8 inches.Roughly crush the digestive biscuits - you want to end up with a combination of crumbs and larger pieces. You can do this by putting the biscuits in a sandwich bag and bashing with a rolling pin, but I find it's just as effective to put them in a bowl and crush with your hands.Coarsely chop the pecans and cherries, and add to the crumbled biscuits.Break the white chocolate into small chunks, and place in a bowl along with the butter (also cut into small chunks). Cook it in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds or so, until fully melted, and then mix it into the biscuit mixture - work fairly quickly before the chocolate begins to cool.When well mixed, spread half of the biscuit mixture into the dish, pressing down firmly to help it pack together.Melt the milk chocolate in the microwave, and drizzle just under half of it over the biscuit mixture - if possible, try to make sure that most of the biscuit mixture is covered (this helps it all to stick together nicely, as well as creating an extra chocolatey layer in the middle of your tiffin).Add the remaining biscuit mixture, and again spread out in a single layer. Top with the remaining milk chocolate, and use the back of a spoon to spread it out into an even layer.Chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours until completely set. Remove from the fridge 5-10 minutes before serving, to allow it to soften slightly and make cutting easier. It keeps for quite a while in the fridge - as long as you can resist eating it.

Food Trivia

The fig is also a fertility symbol and the Arab association with male genitals is so strong that the original word 'fig' is considered improper.

Food Joke

The Passover test [My thanks to Jeff G for the following] Sean is waiting for a bus when another man joins him at the bus stop. After 20 minutes of waiting, Sean takes out a sandwich from his lunch box and starts to eat. But noticing the other man watching, Sean asks, "Would you like one? My wife has made me plenty." "Thank you very much, but I must decline your kind offer," says the other man, "I’m Rabbi Levy." "Nice to meet you, Rabbi," says Sean, "but my sandwiches are alright for you to eat. They only contain cheese. There’s no meat in them." "It’s very kind of you," says Rabbi Levy, "but today we Jews are celebrating Passover. It would be a great sin to eat a sandwich because during the 8 days of Passover, we cannot eat bread. In fact it would be a sin comparable to the sin of adultery." "OK," says Sean, "but it’s difficult for me to understand the significance of what you’ve just said." Many weeks later, Sean and Rabbi Levy meet again. Sean says, "Do you remember, Rabbi, that when we last met, I offered you a sandwich which you refused because you said eating bread on Passover would be as great a sin as that of adultery?" Rabbi Levy replies, "Yes, I remember saying that." "Well, Rabbi," says Sean, "that day, I went over to my mistress’s apartment and told her what you said. We then tried out both the sins, but I must admit, we just couldn’t see the comparison."
