Ingredients
- 2 medium ripe red tomatoes
- 4 large slices crust artisan bread
- olive oil
- 1 clove garlic, sliced in half lenghtwise (no need to peel)
- assorted tomatoes and cherry tomatoes for topping
- fresh oregano leaves
- coarse salt and fresh cracked black pepper
Instructions
- Slice the very end off the tomatoes and grate them using the largest holes on a box grater. Grate them until you are left with only the skin, which you'll discard.
- Brush one side of the bread slices with olive oil and toast until golden. I do this under the broiler, but you can also do it in a large skillet on the stove top. If you've got an outdoor grill fired up, use that!
- Rub the top surface of the toasted bread all over with the cut side of a clove of garlic. The rough surface of the toast will take in just the right amount of flavor.
- Spoon or spread the grated tomato over the surfaces of your toasts.
- Top with thinly sliced tomatoes, and halved cherry tomatoes.
- Sprinkle with coarse salt, cracked black pepper, and oregano leaves. Drizzle with olive oil and slice in half, thirds, or quarters. Serve asap. Note: each large slice of the bread I used will make 2 servings.
