👨‍🍳 Method

  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F).
    ⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
    💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
  2. 2
    Put the cheese in a small baking dish.

  4. 4
    Drizzle the olive oil over the top and sprinkle the oregano, black pepper and chili pepper.
  5. 5
    Bake 20–25 minutes, until the cheese starts to brown around the edges.

    💡Check by the cue (until…), not just the clock: every oven bakes a little differently.
  6. 6
    Take out of the oven and scatter the basil on top.
  7. 7
    Serve immediately with fresh bread.
