Bruschetta with tomatoes, basil, garlic and olive oil Recipe

  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 slices ciabatta bread
  • ½ tsp sea salt
  • 1 clove garlic, peeled and halved
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley, chopped
  • 2 vine tomatoes, de-seeded and chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
  • 6 basil leaves, torn
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper
  1. For the toasted bread, drizzle the oil over the ciabatta and sprinkle over the salt. Heat a griddle pan until smoking and chargrill the bread for 2-4 minutes on each side, or until golden-brown and toasted. Remove from the pan and rub each slice of toast with the cut-side of half a garlic clove.
  2. For the tomato topping, combine all the ingredients in a bowl and mix well, then season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  3. To serve, pile the tomato mixture on top of the toasted bread.
