Ingredients
  

  • 2 red bell peppers halved and seeded
  • 3 garlic heads
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup butter softened
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese
  • 1 tsp dried parsley garnish
  • 1 Brioche bread

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 F (250 Celsius degrees)
  2. Slice the top of each garlic head. On a baking sheet, place the garlic and red bell peppers and drizzle with some olive oil, salt and pepper. Roast for about 1 hour.
  3. Once roasted, remove the vegetables from the oven and let them cool. Adjust the oven to 425 F.
  4. Peel the skin from the red peppers and squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of their skin.
  5. In a food processor, blend the peeled red pepper, garlic and softened butter.
  6. Horizontally slice the brioche bread into top and bottom halves.
  7. Spread the garlic-red pepper butter on the bread and top with mozzarella cheese.
  8. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the cheese melts.
  9. Garnish with some dried parsley and slice into even pieces.
  10. Enjoy while warm!

Notes

  • Make sure to keep an eye on the garlic after 30 minutes, so that it doesn't brown too much. You can cover it with aluminum foil to prevent burning.
  • Make sure to keep an eye on the bread, in order not to burn.
