Equipment

  • 1 Box grater
  • 1 Knife

Ingredients
  

  • 3 slices bread
  • 1 tomato medium-sized
  • Olive oil extra virgin
  • 1 clove garlic
  • Salt to taste
  • Ham preferably Iberian ham (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Wash well the tomato, dry it, cut it in half and grate it with a box grater. It is also possible to crush it with a mixer, but the tomato retains its properties better without being crushed energetically. Reserve in a bowl.
  • Toast the bread slices in the oven, on a toaster or in a grill until they turn brown a are crusty.
  • Meanwhile, add a tablespoon of olive oil and a pinch of salt to the grated tomato and stir a little bit.
  • Pour another splash of olive oil on the toasts.
  • Cut the clove of garlic in half and rub it on the bread slices. The recently poured olive oil will help absorving the flavour of the garlic.
  • Finally, spread the grated tomato over the slices of toasted bread.
  • Optionally, you can top the dish with a thin slice of ham.
