How to make cheese garlic bread
1. Preheat oven at 200 degrees celsius/392 degrees Fahrenheit before starting. slice the loaf of bread in slices having 0.75 inches width
2. now halve each slice.
3. Take 2 tbsp softened butter (butter at room temperature) in a bowl. I used salted butter (amul butter). If using unsalted butter, then add some salt.
4. Grate or mince 3 to 4 medium garlic directly into the butter. Instead of garlic, you can also add garlic chives. You can also crush the garlic in a mortar-pestle and then add to the butter.
5. Mix the grated garlic very well with the butter.
6. Grate 100 grams cheddar or mozzarella cheese. About ½ cup grated cheese.

7. Now spread the garlic butter evenly on all the slices.
8. Top with the cheese generously.
9. Sprinkle with your favorite herb or spice. You can add oregano, basil, thyme, red chili flakes, black pepper, etc. You can also use Italian seasoning if you have it.
10. Place the bread slices in a baking tray.
11. Now keep the baking tray on the top most rack of your OTG with both the top and bottom heating elements on. If using a microwave oven in the convection mode, then keep the baking tray on the glass turn table.
12. Bake for 5 to 6 minutes at 200 degrees celsius/392 degrees fahrenheit, till the edges become a light golden, a bit crisp from the sides and the cheese melts. You don’t need to toast these slices.
Serve these cheesy garlic bread hot with tomato ketchup as a starter or as as a snack.
