Homemade Garlic Bread

I generally use 2 or 3 cloves of garlic, some margarine, a drizzle of olive oil (spreads a bit easier) and some parsley to make it pretty. I spread it on either home made pizza bases, sliced bread, crunchy rolls... OR miss out the olive oil, mix together, wrap balls/sausage shapes in cling film, freeze then when you have a baguette, slice up, put in frozen garlic butter and bake for a bit! x

It really is that simple...
I add 2 cloves of garlic for a ciabatta/baguette - mix the butter and chopped finely garlic in a pestle and mortar (but a spoon in a bowl is just fine). Then stir in some chopped parsley.
I think the olive oil tip sounds cool as does adding the parmesan so I will try those when I make it next.

I usually just sprinkle a small amount of dried mixed herbs over the top, the ingredients of which can vary depending on which brand you buy, but always tastes fine.

I made garlic balls once, (the receipe from the dough packet) I think I just used garlic and butter as well.

But if you want to put herbs in then I'd go for mixed herbs.

I chuck in whatever I have - usually parsley and maybe a bit of basil.

If you have the oven on and the time, roast a whole bulb of garlic until it goes soft. Sweeze out the pulp and mash it into the butter/marg - it's gorgeous, even if it is a bit more faff!
