    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

    Lovely. I used too much oil as my tomatoes were smaller than I think they were supposed to be but still tasted amazing.

    Living in Spain we eat this regularly. I cut the tomatoes in half and grate them before adding seasoning and olive oil. Don't always add garlic as not all my friends enjoy it as I do.

    Made these for as part of a tapas evening, they were the first things to go - I also grated my tomatoes, which I think made the bread more moist - will do these again and again.

    These were delicious - much to my surprise - didn't expect so much from a bit of bread, a few tomatoes and some ham. Couldn't get any Serrano Ham so used some other kind and it was lovely.
