Cooking Steps
a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
b) Roughly chop the chives (use scissors if easier). Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
c) Grate the Cheddar. Drain the mozzarella and tear it into small pieces.
d) Cut the top of the focaccia into a crisscross pattern, slicing at 2cm intervals lengthways and widthways, without cutting through to the bottom.
a) Pop a small saucepan on low heat.
b) Add the butter to the pan and heat until melted, 2-3 mins.
c) Remove from the heat and stir in the garlic, chives and olive oil (see pantry for amount).
d) Lay the focaccia onto a foil lined baking tray and spoon the garlic butter evenly into each cut in the bread.
a) Pile the grated cheeses and torn mozzarella evenly on top of the focaccia, pushing some down into the cuts.
b) Loosely wrap the foil around your cheesy garlic focaccia to enclose it, then bake on the top shelf of your oven for 15 mins.
c) After 15 mins, unwrap and bake the bread for another 5 mins until golden and crispy. Serve on a board to tear and share.
Enjoy!

Review summary
Updated on Aug 2026- Flavour: The cheesy garlic combination is well received, with the generous mix of mozzarella and Cheddar being a particular highlight.
- Ease of prep: There is more hands-on work than some expect — melting butter, chopping garlic, and grating cheese — so allow a little extra time.
- Suggestions: Line the baking tray with baking paper before covering with foil, as foil alone can stick to the base when the cheese melts. Consider using salted butter if you prefer a more seasoned flavour throughout.
- Next-day meals: Works well as a filling side dish alongside pasta or other Italian-style meals.
