Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to fry white bread with garlic in a frying pan? Prepare all ingredients. The bread for croutons does not necessarily need to be fresh, so you can safely cut dried, slightly stale bread from yesterday. White bread can be used in any shape and type: loaf, loaf, loaf, baguette, and so on. If desired, such croutons can be made from black bread, but they will turn out denser and harder.

Step 2

Step 2
Cut the bread into pieces 1-1.5 centimeters thick; if the pieces are too large, you can cut them into triangles or cubes, as you prefer. Heat a frying pan and pour olive or other vegetable oil into it. Warm it up. Place the cooked bread pieces into the pan. You can learn how to choose the right frying pan and oil for frying from articles on these topics. Links are at the end of the recipe.

Step 3

Step 3
Fry the bread over medium heat until golden brown on both sides.

Step 4

Step 4
Remove the peel from the garlic cloves and finely chop them by passing them through a press or grate them on a fine grater. Those who like spicy and piquant dishes can increase the amount of garlic.

Step 5

Step 5
Place the chopped garlic in a plate, add a teaspoon of olive oil. Stir and microwave for 15-30 seconds at medium power.

Step 6

Step 6
Take out the plate with garlic, stir the garlic mass and spread it on the surface of the fried pieces of bread. Sprinkle each piece immediately, while the croutons are hot, with finely chopped fresh dill. Thanks to the addition of dill and garlic, the croutons are very tasty and aromatic; this combination gives a slight mushroom flavor. You can sprinkle with other fresh herbs or mixture if desired.

Step 7

Step 7
Stack the garlic bread croutons and serve. They are perfect for soup, hot soup, salad or as a stand-alone dish with sweet tea or coffee. Bon appetit!
