Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the Garlic Butter
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
For the Sandwich
  • 4 slices bread (sourdough or whole wheat work well)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or your favorite Halal cheese)
  • Fresh herbs for garnish (like basil or parsley, optional)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until creamy and fully incorporated.
  2. Spread a generous amount of the garlic butter mixture on one side of each slice of bread.
Cooking
  1. Place two slices butter-side down in a skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle half of the cheese evenly on top.
  2. Place the remaining bread slices butter-side up on top of the cheese. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown, then carefully flip to the other side. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, ensuring the cheese melts perfectly.
  3. Remove from heat, allow it to cool slightly, slice it in half, sprinkle with fresh herbs if desired, and enjoy!

Notes

For ingredient substitutions, consider using Halal-friendly cheese options like cheddar or pepper jack. Keep the heat on medium to avoid burning the bread. Don't skimp on the garlic butter for the best flavor.
