Spanish Recipe # Pan Tomaca (Spanish Tomato Bread)

Pan tomaca, or more accurately pa amb tomaquet, is a traditional Catalan breakfast dish that is also loved in other parts of Spain. It couldn't be easier to prepare! If you don't fancy it for breakfast, it also makes a lovely snack or starter.

Ingredients

• 1 large tomato, chopped
• 2 slices crusty bread
• 1 clove garlic, halved
• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, or to taste
• salt to taste

Cooking Directions

1. Place tomato in a blender; blend until smooth.
2. Toast the bread until browned, 1 to 3 minutes. Rub each slice of toast with garlic; this is easier to do if the peel is left on.
3. Top each slice of toast with pureed tomato. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
