Garlic cheese toast recipe

By swasthi , on December 18, 2019, 60 Comments, Jump to Recipe

Garlic cheese toast recipe – A quick cheese garlic bread toast under 20 mins. You can make this with any kind of bread you have. I went ahead using a whole meal loaf. This is a very simple garlic bread recipe and you can spice it up with own ideas like using chili flakes, crushed pepper or even with fresh herbs or dried herbs.

This can be made in oven and even on stove top. Sharing both of them here in the same post.

This garlic cheese toast is a favorite with my kids and I make this for the after school snacking. Sometimes I do make it for dinner along with tomato soup or vegetable soup.

This recipe uses minimum ingredients so I made it the basic and simple way. You can get innovative and use your own ideas like using green chilies for heat, veggies for nutrition etc.

Sometimes I use bell peppers and sometimes only the sweet corn.

Preparation

1. Add soft butter and chopped garlic to a bowl. If using unsalted butter, you may add a bit, not too much since there is salt in cheese too. Preheat the oven to 190 C. If making on stove top, heat up the pan / tawa on a medium heat.

2. Whisk it up well to make a smooth garlic butter.

3. Smear the butter generously. Press the garlic chunks a bit into the bread to prevent them from falling off. If making on stove top, i suggest buttering both the sides. Put this in the oven and bake for 12 mins. If making on tawa, toast it on one side on a medium high heat.

4. While the bread toasts, grate your cheese. I avoid buying ready grated cheese since most of these have preservatives in E series added to it.

5. The garlic bread is done to golden. Bring the tray out of the oven.

6. Sprinkle cheese generously on the hot bread along with your favorite seasoning like chili flakes, herbs etc. Put back in the oven for 2 to 3 mins or until the cheese melts and begins to turn golden.

Making garlic cheese toast on tawa – Lower the flame completely and keep the pan covered for a while or until the cheese begins to melt. To melt the cheese better you can also microwave for 6o to 90 seconds.

    Hi if we don’t have chilli flakes and oregano any other option?

      Hi Harvi,
      Chop some green chilies and use. If you have some dried red chilies, you can pulse them in the mixer and make your own chilli flakes. Skip the oregano and use any herbs you have like fresh coriander leaves or dill leaves.

    Your recipes seem easy with the way you have given steps with photos etc.
    I am actually looking for daily menus especially for office lunch.
    Can you give some sample lunch like chappati and one sabji to pack and what to prepare a day or two ahead. Or rice dish with side gravy dish. What to keep ready on weekends for next five workdays. Thanks
