Ingredients
- 4 slices day-old French bread, cubed
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt to taste
Method
- Pour the olive oil into a shallow bowl over the garlic and let it soak. Soaking it longer will yield more garlic flavor.
- Preheat the oven to 350 °F (~180 °C).
- Strain the olive oil into a frying pan and fry the bread cubes in it, tossing to coat with oil.
- Spread the bread cubes on a baking sheet and sprinkle with salt. Bake for 10 minutes or until crispy and dry.
