Pan con tomate, also known as pa amb tomàquet (in Catalan) is a Spanish garlic tomato toast that Spaniards eat for breakfast. You can enjoy it as is or top it with some dry-cured ham!
Toast the bread (you can use oven, skillet or toaster).
Cut the tomato into quarters and remove any hard parts. Peel the garlic and cut it in half.
When the toast is ready, rub the garlic over it (you can do both sides, if you like). Then, rub with the tomato, flesh side down. Finally, season with salt and drizzle with olive oil.
Best served right away!
Notes
I recommend using artisan bread, sourdough bread, French baguette or ciabatta. It’s even better when you use a day-old bread.
The serving size might vary. It will depend on size of each slice. When using smaller slices (like I have on the pictures, I suggest using 2 slices per person).
The preparation time includes toasting the bread in toaster. It takes about 2 minutes for my toaster.

If you have tomatoes that are a little harder, you can grate the flesh instead of rubbing it onto the toast.
