Directions

10 mins to prep

10 mins to cook

  1. Step 1

    Place the butter into a pan over medium heat to melt, then add the breadcrumbs and toast.

  2. Step 2

    When the crumbs start to golden, add all other ingredients (excluding the chives) and keep cooking until golden brown, being careful not to burn.

  3. Step 3

    Once the mixture is perfect, pour it into a bowl, then add the chives and mix together. The warmth will release the wonderful aromas of the chives. Yum!
