Ingredients

• "light" roll (e.g. Parisian or ciabatta)
• extra virgin olive oil
• garlic
• 2 tomatoes (e.g. heirloom)
• basil

optional

• green onion
• about 80 g cheese (e.g. gorgonzola, mozzarella, goat)

Preparation

1. Cut the bread into slices, rub with half a garlic clove (if you like an intense garlic taste, you can use grated). Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil.
2. Blanch the tomatoes and peel them. Cut into cubes, drain excess juice. Arrange on bread slices, optionally add thinly sliced green onion and cheese (in small pieces or grated).
3. Bake in the oven under the broiler for about 5 minutes until the crostini is golden and the cheese melts. Sprinkle with basil leaves, season with salt and freshly ground pepper.
