Jamón serrano is a Spanish ham similar to prosciutto - which you could use instead, although it is a bit more expensive.

    So simple, so tasty a wonderful nibble before a meal. I did find though that instead of rather mixing the garlic with the tomatoes, rub it on the toasted bread. It made the flavor stand out a bit more and just fewer ingredients to cut.

    These were really yum! I added garlic olive oil instead of ordinary, and squeezed a bit of tomato puree into it too. Lovely!

    Served this as a starter using one larger slice of fresh crusty bread per person and a whole slice of serrano ham on each. It was lovely and light and very tasty.

    Quicker, and DIY for guests, if the garlic is rubbed onto warm toasted bread and small very ripe cherry or baby plum tomatoes halved an squashed into the bread, then drizzled with olive oil, Catalan- style. The addition of the Serrano or, if you are splashing out, Pata Negra jamon is a great finishing touch
