Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.

  2. Place the bread slices on the prepared baking sheet and toast in the oven for about 8-10 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy. Remove from the oven and set aside.

  3. While the bread is toasting, cut the tomatoes in half and grate them using a box grater over a bowl. Discard the skin once the flesh has been grated.

  4. Peel the garlic clove and slice it in half. Rub the cut sides of garlic over the toasted bread slices to infuse them with a subtle garlic flavor.

  5. Spoon the grated tomatoes over the garlic-rubbed bread slices, spreading it evenly to cover the surface of each slice.

  6. Sprinkle the chopped olives over the tomato layer, distributing them evenly among the slices.

  7. Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil over the topped bread slices, allowing it to soak into the tomatoes and olives.

  8. Season with salt and pepper to taste, ensuring all the flavors are well balanced.

  9. If desired, garnish each toast with fresh basil leaves for a pop of color and added herbaceousness.

  10. Serve the Pan Con Tomate Y Aceitunas immediately to enjoy the medley of flavors while the toast is still warm and crispy. Pair it with a glass of Spanish red wine or a refreshing sangria for an authentic Spanish culinary experience.
