For garlic-lovers, this recipe is an absolute gem! And it's just so easy to make when you have something else in the oven. I've already made it twice: the first batch disappeared so quickly that, the second time, I made a double batch! And I can see it becoming one of the staples in my fridge! I've mixed it into mashed potatoes, blended it into a pasta side-dish and used it blended with a little cream cheese and a little Greek yoghurt (blended till the consistency was as I wanted it) to make the most scrumptious spread for sandwiches. With a spread like this and some prosciutto and roasted red pepper – or whatever takes your fancy – and presto: a yummy plus sandwich! Thanks, Rita, for sharing this fabulous recipe! Like you, I will be using it on, with and in so many dishes!
