Brazillian Garlic Bread
Ben O'DonoghueIngredients:
Serves 4-6
- 3 egg yolks
- 5 garlic cloves
- A good pinch of salt
- 250 ml (1 cup) extra virgin olive oil
- 250 ml (1 cup) thick / heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 2 cups grated mature cheddar
- 1 long baguette
Method:
- Using a stick blender, blend the egg yolks in a jug with the garlic and salt.
- Slowly add the olive oil until you have a thick mayonnaise. Now slowly add the cream. Add half the dried oregano to the creamy mayo.
- Cut incisions into the baguette, about three-quarters deep, and about one finger-space apart. Using a spoon, fill at least 1 tablespoon of the creamy mayo between each slice.
- Place a length of foil on the bench, then top with a similar length of baking paper.
- Place the baguette in the middle. Fold the edges inwards once, then wrap the paper and foil up around the bread, leaving it a little loose and the top of the bread exposed.
- Pour the remaining creamy mayo over the top of the bread. Sprinkle with the cheese and remaining oregano.
- Cook on the resting rack of your barbecue at about 200 C for about 8–10 minutes or until the top of the bread is crispy and the cheese melted and golden brown. If you don’t have a resting rack bake it in the oven for the same time at the same temperature.
