Tostados
This is wonderful at any time of day, we have it for breakfast at about 10, or as a snack or starter.
You will need:
- A day old barra (french stick)
- A peeled clove of garlic
- Extra virgin olive oil
- Fresh tomato
Slice the barra lengthwise and toast until golden, then rub the toasted side with the garlic clove all over. Take the tomato and slice in half and rub vigourously over the toast. Drizzle lots and lots of olive oil onto the toast let it soak in and enjoy! Some people like to sprinkle a little salt on too.
