- 3 tbsp/1 1/2 oz/40g butter
- Scant 1/3 cup/3fl oz/80ml extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place the garlic cut side down in a large roasting pan.

Break off a piece of crusty bread, then squeeze out the tender flesh of the garlic along with a healthy dose of cheese and smear it liberally over the bread. Serve with a chutney or relish and a good glass of red wine.
