- 1 slice of rustic bread, about 2 cm thick
- 1 clove garlic, cut in half length ways
- 1 ripe tomato, cut in half
- Extra virgin olive oil, to taste
- Salt
Method
- Toast the bread until it is golden.

- Serve on a plate, drizzle with the oil and add salt to taste.
Variations
A similar version comes from Cataluña where it is known as pa amb tomàquet. However the Catalans put the oil on before the tomato. Sometimes, sliced ham is added on the top.
Chef's notes
There are some cheat's methods of making this, especially if you cannot get ripe tomatoes. Firstly, you can grate the tomato finely and spread it over the toast. or try using a tinned plum tomato. Alternatively, use some tinned chopped tomatoes and drain them off thoroughly beforehand.
