Roasted Garlic

roasted garlic spread recipe

I had a lot of garlic cloves in my fridge, and I was concerned that they were going to go bad soon.  What better way to make use of the garlic cloves than to roast them.  After roasting them, I spread them on some burger patties.  It just happened that the gentle flavor of the roasted garlic combined really well with the beef.

I started with some peeled garlic cloves and chopped off the end of each clove.  (The oven was preheated to 350F (175C).)

I folded the garlic cloves into a sort of bowl made from tin foil and poured some olive oil into the bowl.

After scrunching up the top of the tin foil bowl, I wrapped another piece of tin foil around it to prevent any of the olive oil from leaking through.  After 40 minutes, the garlic was really soft and easy to spread.
