1. The bread should be cut diagonally along the length at about 3 in / 7.5 cm intervals, not cut all the way through.
2. All the other ingredients can now go into a bowl and be gently mixed into a paste until there's an even spread of herbs through the butter.
3. The mix should be liberally spread in each cut in the bread and baked in a hot oven (400*F / 200*C) for 20 minutes, or until all the butter has melted and the bread starts to turn brown. This tastes best straight from the oven, cut into mouthwatering slices.
SERVING SUGGESTION: The garlic bread can be cut all the way through and grated cheese sprinkled on top (mozzarella or cheddar is good) and placed under a hot broiler until the cheese is melted.
SERVES 2 - 4
