Garlic Bread

This is a classic recipe with my own twist. Serve it with salad, omelette or steak.

Ingredients for 4:
1 day old french baguette, cut into 2cm slices

For the garlic butter mix the following
150 gr soft butter
2 cloves of garlic, crushed
salt and pepper
1 tbsp chopped parsley
1 tsp lemon juice

Method:
Turn the oven on to 180ÂșC
Spread about 1/2 tsp of the prepared butter onto both sides of the bread slices. Reassemble the bread loaf and cover with aluminium foil. At this point you can refrigerate or freeze until needed. It will keep in the fridge for 3-4 days, and 4 weeks in the freezer.

To serve:
Bake the bread in the oven for 20 minutes. After this time open the foil and left the bread brown for a further 10 minutes, until it gets brown and crunchy.

Serve very hot.
