Ingredients
For the fresh tomato topping
- 500 g (1lb) ripe tomatoes (use a variety of tomatoes for added flavor and texture)
- 1 red onion finely chopped
- 2 tbsp fresh basil finely chopped
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1-2 tsp fresh lemon juice/Balsamic vinegar
- salt and pepper to taste
For the bruschetta
- 4-8 lices (depending on size) bread of your choice (sourdough, baguette, Italian or Tuscan bread all works well)
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 garlic clove halved
Instructions
- To make the tomato mixture, chop the tomatoes and onion then place in a mixing bowl.
- Add the basil, olive oil and lemon juice then season to taste and mix well. Allow to stand for 10-20 minutes to allow the tomatoes to release some of their juices.
- To make the bruschetta, brush the bread with olive oil and grill in a grill pan (or outdoor BBQ/Grill/Braai) until toasted on both sides.
- Remove from the pan and rub with the garlic.
- Top the toasted bread with the tomato mixture and serve.
