Many Italian dishes are quick and easy and here is the easiest of them all - BRUSCHETTA.All you need is a few slices of bread,olive oil,tomtoes and a few spices.
Born in the 15th century in Central Italy,it is grilled bread rubbed with garlic topped with olive oil and salt and pepper .It has undergone lots of changes that you can find topping like veggies ,meat,cheese etc.This can be served as an appetizer or a snack
I tried it for the very first time for DK's AWED Italiano cos I just could not miss her event. This is my version of bruschetta.
You need:
Bread slices-4
Olive oil/Garlic butter-2 tablespoons
Tomatoes-2 finely chopped
Basil leaves- to garnish
Salt and pepper to taste
1.Toast the bread slices
2.Brush with olive oil / garlic butter.
3.Top with chopped tomatoes and sprinkle salt and pepper
4.Garnish with chopped basil and serve.
Isn't that easy!
