Bruschetta with tomato salsa and basil
Serves 4 people
Cooking time 10 minutes
Ingredients
Toppings:
500g tomatoes (I love to use the red and yellow tomatoes for flavour and colour)
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 small red onion, finely chopped
1 tbsp white wine vinegar
salt and fresh ground black pepper
Bruschetta:
A loaf of Ciabatta bread
Garlic clove
Olive oil
Instructions
- Place your tomatoes in a bowl and pour boiling water over. Remove them after 30 seconds and peel. Cut your peeled tomatoes into quarters and scoop out the seeds. Finely chop your red onion.
- Add all the ingredients, including the olive oil, white wine vinegar, finely chopped onion and season with salt and pepper into the bowl and give it a toss.
- It's now ready to serve.
- Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Cut the Ciabatta into 1-inch slices. Place bread on grill pan cut side down and grill on both sides until golden and crisp. Remove from the pan and drizzle with olive oil, and whilst still warm, rub garlic cloves over the grilled bread.
- You are now ready to add your toppings!
