Pà amb tomàquet (Toasted bread with tomato)

Appetizer  Bread  Bread  Broil/Grill  Lunch  Mediterranean  Snack 

• 12x1 cm/1/2 in thick slices country-style bread
• 3 cloves garlic, halved (optional)
• 6 soft, vine-ripened tomatoes
• olive oil
• salt
• paper-thin slices cured ham (optional)

Toast the bread under a hot grill or on a barbecue grid over glowing coals.

While warm, rub each slice on one side with a cut garlic clove.

Halve the tomatoes crosswise and rub each side of the toast with a tomato half, allowing the juice, seeds and pulp to soak into the bread.

Pour on a little olive oil and season with salt. Serve topped with ham if desired.

This is a very typical dish from Catalonia, one of the autonomous regions of Spain. It's usually served with cured ham or with a great variety of cold meats and it can be eaten at any time of the day :)

Enjoy !!!
