Tomato and spring onion bruschettas
These toasts have a scent of the Mediterranean about them, and the
spring onions used here make a welcome change from the more typical
garlic. Add mozzarella cheese if you wish, to make a more substantial
snack.
Preparation time: 30 minutes
Cooking time: 10 minutes
-
2 to 3 ripe plum tomatoes
-
2 spring onions, finely sliced
-
Salt and black pepper
-
2 tbsp olive oil
-
4 to 6 slices French bread
-
2 slices whole meal bread
-
Slice the tomatoes and place them in a
bowl with the spring onions. Season well, then add the oil and leave
for 20 minutes, stirring from time to time.
-
Toast one side of the bread under a
grill, then turn it over and pile on the tomatoes and spring onions.
-
Reserve the olive oil. Grill until the
tomatoes start to blacken -make sure all the bread is covered or it
will burn.
-
Spoon the oil over the bruschettas and
garnish with a small lettuce leaf or other greens to serve.
