For the bread

Instructions
Preparation
- In a mixing bowl, combine the grated mozzarella cheese, grated garlic, cream, chopped green chilies, finely chopped capsicum, finely chopped coriander, salt, and Italian seasoning. Mix well until everything is harmoniously blended.
- Spread butter on one side of each slice of bread.
- On the other side of the bread, spread the cheese mixture generously.
Cooking
- Heat a pan over low heat. Place your bread slice in the pan, buttered side down, with the cheesy side facing up.
- For an extra trick, place a small bowl filled with water in the pan and cover it with a lid. Cook for about 2 minutes on low heat until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted.
- Carefully remove the bread from the pan and transfer it to a serving plate. Cut into desired shapes and serve hot.
Notes
Wrap leftovers in foil or place in an airtight container to stay fresh for up to two days. Reheat in a pan on low heat until the cheese melts and the bread warms through.
