Simple Bruschetta

Ingredients:
1 ciabatta loaf/french loaf/ordinary bread, cut in thin slices
1 peeled clove of garlic, rub it in a little salt
Extra virgin olive oil

Topping:
Ripe red plum tomatoes
A bunch of basil leaves
A few drops extra virgin olive oil
Rock salt
Fresh black pepper

Method:

Put tomatoes in boiling water, take out as the skin peels. Cool. Peel the skin and chop.

Pre-heat oven for about 10 minutes. Place the slices of bread and toast them for about a minute on each side, until they're golden and crisp and have charred strips across each side. (You could also just toast them in a toaster.)

When its done, mark three little slashes across each slice, rub the garlic in and drizzle about half a tablespoon of olive oil over each one.

Now top with chopped tomatoes, chopped basil leaves, season with salt and fresh black pepper and sprinkle a few more drops of olive oil over before serving. Simples. :)
