- Trim the roots and the very tips of the garlic heads (leave the heads intact) and remove any loose skin.
- Place the heads of garlic into a small oven proof dish, drizzle extra virgin olive oil over them to about 1/4 inch depth and sprinkle with the mixed herbs and salt and pepper.
- Cover with greased foil and bake in the preheated oven for about 30 min basting in the oil occasionally. Check whether they are ready by piercing with the tip of a sharp knife. If they are cooked they should be very soft and tender.
- Divide the cream cheese (if using) between two small ramekins and decorate with the parsley sprigs. Place on individual serving plates with 1-2 heads of garlic each, some of the oil in that it cooked and sliced ciabatta.
- Eat by squeezing out the sweet, soft pulp of each clove of garlic from its papery skin onto the bread that you have spread with cream cheese (if using). You may want to provide a finger bowl and napkin each!
