Print recipeIngredients
- 2 or 3 fresh tomatoes (chopped)
- 1 - 2 Cloves garlic, softened in salt
- 1 Tbsp fresh basil (finely chopped)
- 1 baguette
- 1 stalk celery (finely sliced)
- freshly grated pepper
- olive oil
Directions
|
Place a teaspoon or so of salt on a cutting board. Peel a clove of garlic. Using a kitchen knife work the salt into the garlic. The garlic will start to break down. Remove the tough core and throw it away.  | |
|
Add the garlic/salt mixture to the chopped tomatoes and celery. Add a generous grinding of pepper. Then add the basil and a little olive oil.  | |
|
Slice the baguette on an angle to provide more surface. Brush olive oil onto the slices. Toast the bread, oiled side down on a griddle until golden brown.  | |
| Spoon tomato mixture onto the grilled side of the bread and serve immediately, to rave reviews! | |
