Materials

  • 1 head garlic
  • 3 tbsp water
  • olive oil

Instructions

  • Cut the top (pointed end) off of the head of garlic so you can see the cloves
  • In a small, shallow, microwave safe dish (or mug) place the garlic and pour the water in
  • Drizzle with a decent amount of olive oil (I like to use a pretty generous amount)
  • Microwave at 40% power for about 10 minutes, enjoy!
