Although there are billions of recipe pages, I was thinking that perhaps some of us are skilled in cooking and some of us - like me... - are not so much.
Do you have a favourite type of snack that you can prepare fast in between barn chores or in the morning?
Here is mine, but please beware, I still am a bit of a rookie in the kitchen.
Garlic Bread:
How long does it take:
5-10 minutes
What you need:
Few loafes of bread of your favourite type
Some butter
Some garlic
Another ingredient that you like. I like bacon for example, or cheese :)
How to make this:
Mash the garlic in the blender - or if you don't have a blender just chop it down
Mix the buter with the garlic well. I use a fork for that..or the mixer.
Put a layer of garlic butter on each loaf, place them in the oven at medium heat for 3-5 minutes. Take a look, when they look golden and crispy, the're ready.
Take them out and add cheese / salad / fresh bell pepper slices / whatever you want actually. I doubt it mixes well with sweet stuff, but you never know
The reason for which I add the rest of the ingredients after is that I like my tartines crispy on the outside and puffy on the inside, and by adding bacon in the oven the whole thing might get a bit greasy.
