Ingredients
- 200 g unsalted butter cubed (slightly softened - see my notes)
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves finely chopped
- 1 garlic clove core removed and crushed
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon fine cooking salt
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine unsalted butter, finely chopped rosemary, garlic, lemon juice and salt.
- Mix well until combined (I start with a potato masher, then move to a fork).
- Once combined, place butter onto a piece of parchment paper and shape it into a log by rolling it up, then twist both ends in the opposite direction (like a bonbon).
- Refrigerate until needed.

Notes
- *Please note that the amount of calories per serve is provided as a guide only, as ingredients and cooking methods can vary greatly*
- Use the best quality butter you can afford, and only allow it to soften enough to incorporate the ingredients.
- Removing the core from the centre of the garlic clove will give you a smoother garlic flavour profile. This post has more information.
