Ingredients
Scale
Roasted Garlic:
- 8–10 garlic cloves
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Pinch of salt
Garlic Butter Custard:
- Roasted garlic from above
- ½ cup butter, melted (113g)
- 1 egg
- ¼ cup milk (60g)
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp paprika
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
Assembly:
- 12 King’s Hawaiian Original Hawaiian Sheet Rolls, kept in the full sheet form (or replace with a French baguette of similar size)
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- Chopped parsley and chili flakes for serving
Instructions
- Roasted Garlic: Pre-heat oven to 400F. Mix the peeled garlic cloves in the olive oil and salt. Transfer to a mini oven safe pot with a lid (or cover with foil) and bake for ~20 minutes until they are soft and golden. Mash with a fork and set aside.
- Garlic Butter Custard: Add the mashed roasted garlic, melted butter, egg, milk, salt, paprika, and parsley to a bowl. Thoroughly whisk to combine.
- Assembly: Change the oven temperature to 350F after roasting the garlic. Use a sharp knife to divide the sheet of bread rolls into 2 halves. Place on a large baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes until light golden and crispy. Transfer the garlic butter custard to a larger pan. Carefully dip the baked bread sheets into the garlic butter custard, coating them well on all sides. Bake at 350F for 15-18 minutes until golden. Cover with shredded mozzarella cheese. Broil for ~5 minutes until melted and golden. Garnish with fresh parsley and chili flakes. Slice and serve.
Notes
- For extra flavor, you can add a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese before serving.
- Adjust the amount of garlic to suit your taste preference.
