Ingredients

500g loaf No.1 White (or 5 Seeds White) Sourdough
80g Essential Salted Dairy Butter, softened
1 Large pinch dried chilli flakes (optional)
50g frozen Cooks’ Ingredients Wild Garlic, defrosted
½ x 250g pack Grated Cheddar & Mozzarella

Method

Preheat the oven to 190ºC, gas mark 5. Make slashes in the loaf in a cross-hatch pattern, cutting almost down to the base of the loaf and spacing the cuts around 2cm apart. Place the loaf on a large piece of foil.
Mix together the butter, chilli, if using, wild garlic and cheese. Press the mixture into the cuts in the bread.
Fold the foil round the loaf, place into the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, opening up the foil for the last 5 minutes, until the cheese has melted and the top is crunchy. Serve warm.
