The tasty video represnts recipes so fun and easy to make that you just got hooked to them. I have downloaded the app on my phone and love watching the videos. Someimes my elder daughter would watch any video and ask me to make the dish.
The Garlic Knots turned out super delciious, they were soft inside and a little crust outside. I mean the knots were just perfect and I served them with roasted tomato salsa. I know it doesn’t sound like a combination but believe me it sure was amazing.

Ingredients
- 4 tbsp butter (113 g) butter
- 1/4 cups (59 ml) parsley leaves
- 4-5 cloves garlic cloves
- 1 1/2 cups (355 ml) all purpose flour
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp olive oil (15 ml) olive oil
- 1 tsp instant dry yeast
- 1 cups (237 ml) warm water
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, add flour, salt, and yeast; make a well in the center.
- Pour in olive oil and warm water; mix until a dough forms.
- Knead the dough for about 10 minutes, using dry flour as needed.
- Let the dough rise in an oiled bowl, covered with cling wrap, for about an hour, or until doubled in size.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper or grease with butter.
- Divide the dough into 9 equal parts; roll into long tubes and tie into knots.
- Arrange the knots on the prepared tray and bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine all garlic butter ingredients in a bowl.
- Remove the knots from the oven, brush with garlic butter, and bake for another 5 minutes.
- Serve warm with tomato salsa or another sauce.
Notes

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use fresh garlic instead of garlic powder for the garlic knots?
Yes, you can use fresh minced garlic instead of garlic powder. Just be aware that fresh garlic may give a stronger flavor, so adjust the amount to your taste.
What type of parsley is recommended for the garlic knots?
Fresh flat-leaf parsley is recommended for the garlic knots as it has a stronger flavor compared to curly parsley.
How can I make the garlic knots extra crusty on the outside?
To achieve a crustier exterior, you can brush the knots with olive oil before baking and bake them at a higher temperature for the last few minutes.
