Garlic Rolls

To complete this you will need:

Four medium garlic cloves
½ stick unsalted butter, softened
1 tbsp. olive oil
A loaf of Italian or French bread (any bread that you may like)
4 tsp. garlic paste or 2 tsp. garlic powder (optional)

2 tbsp. Parmesan or Romano cheese, grated (optional)

Step 1: Preheat broiler

Preheat your broiler.

Step 2: Prepare the garlic

Mince the garlic gloves with a knife or put them through a press, and then mash them with the side of a heavy knife blade until they are the consistency of paste.

Tip: You can substitute one teaspoon of garlic paste or one-half teaspoon of garlic powder per garlic clove.

Step 3: Combine garlic and butter

Mix together the garlic, butter, oil, and parsley, if using, until smooth.

Step 4: Spread on bread

Cut the bread in half, lengthwise, and spread the garlic-butter mixture on both halves.

Tip: Sprinkle grated cheese on top if you like.

Step 5: Broil

Broil until golden brown, about five minutes.
