Grilled Garlic Bread

This is something I made for Sig's Grill It event, but was too busy to post it on time. Its very simple and tastes heavenly. But, you need to be a garlic lover for that. 

TH has sandwiches every morning and generally likes to stay from bread of any form over weekends. The one and only exception is garlic bread. We go out for pizza quite often and invariably end up stuffing ourselves because of the generous portions of garlic bread we ordered in the beginning. I like mine with cheese and TH likes it without. 


This is a grilled version of our good 'ol garlic bread, except that I didn't have baguette in hand, so used normal white bread and that its grilled on a toaster instead of baked. 
What I Used:

Bread - 6 pieces, cut into triangles (Use baguette slices for a more authentic look and taste)
Melted butter - 4 tbsp
Minced garlic - 6 pods
Salt (if butter is unsalted) - 1/2 tsp
Chillie flakes and oregano - for seasoning
How I Made It:

1. Mix the butter with garlic and salt. 

2. Spread this mixture lavishly on the bread pieces.

3. Grill on a toaster till both sides are golden brown.

4. Season with chillie flakes and oregano. 

Enjoy hot!

Hi Nags,

Great looking GB. a very simple and easy way to make garlic bread I suppose. I have usually tasted garlic bread with butter and cheese in the middle, I think your method is better.Will give it a try for sure.

Nags said...

RAKS KITCHEN said...

I don't use butter as such mostly..but other than amul,I found Golden churn Australian butter to be gud..though I hardly tried anything else...but not sure its unsalted or what!U can check it out in cold storage or in fair price..

Nags said...

but didn't you use unsalted butter to make ghee?

Passionate About Baking said...

O I LOVE THIS...yes, loads of garlic & slap on some cheese Nags. I was very confused about which blog to descend into!! Edible seemed a likely choice & so am here. Read on the other one you went to HKG...it's a fun place. I enjoy it a lot!!

jo said...

Oh yum .. these look absolutely delicious, espcially love garlic breads.

redmenace said...

What a great idea. Thanks!

Aparna said...

This looks verynice, its a pity it missed Sig's event.
I don't really like garlic, bur garlic bread is good as long as the flavour isn't over powering.

Swapna said...

Very tempting. I have a toaster-griller. Should I keep single slices of bread with butter and close the lid and grill or should I keep another slice on top of the slice and then grill. Please reply.

Nags said...

dab on the butter and keep one slice at a time on the grill. turn over when one side is browned. i made this on a conventional sandwich maker so do try out in the OTG :)
