APPETIZER

INGREDIENTS

  • 5 to 6 cloves of roasted garlic 
  • Salt 
  • Zest of 1 lemon 
  • Herb(s)- I used curly leaf parsley for mine, you could also use flat leaf parsley or another herb of your choice 
  • Red pepper flakes 
  • Shawarma seasoning 
  • Ciabatta bread (or any crusty bread will do) 

DIRECTIONS

  1. Roast the garlic by either putting a few cloves in a small sauce pan, covering with oil and watching until golden; or cutting the top 1/4 off a bulb, brushing with oil, wrapping in foil and putting in the oven at 400°F for 30-40 minutes 
  2. Next, spread butter over 2/3 of the serving board, leaving room for the bread. 
  3. Sprinkle a big pinch of salt over the butter. Next, sprinkle on some shawarma seasoning (or use any seasoning you like). 
  4. Zest a lemon over the butter 
  5. Once the garlic is cooled, use your fingers or a knife to break the cloves into pieces and dot around the butter 
  6. Chop your herbs a little and sprinkle over the top and finish with a pinch of red pepper flakes.  
  7. Serve immediately with warm ciabatta.
