Tostada con Tomate (Toast with Grated Tomato)
Tostada con Tomate (Toast with Grated Tomato) is Spanish home cooking, eaten at breakfast. On the plate it is the dish at the centre. Below is what usually sits beside it, what it does and does not contain, and what else to cook once you have made it.
Ingredients
- 2 slices rustic bread
- 1 ripe tomato
- 1 garlic clove
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 pinch salt
How to cook it
- Toast the bread slices in a toaster or under the broiler until golden and crisp.
- Halve the garlic clove and rub the cut side lightly over the warm toast, if using.
- Halve the tomato and grate the cut side directly onto the toast on a box grater, discarding the skin, so the pulp soaks in.
- Drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle with the salt.
- Serve immediately while the toast is still warm.
