Ingredients
- 1 loaf bread. Country loaf, baguette. Anything that will slice nicely into the size you want.
- 8 slices prosciutto
- 8 oz mozzarella cheese (250 grams)
- 3 cloves garlic I love garlic, so I use quite a bit.
- ¼ cup olive oil Use the best quality olive oil you can.
- 5 leaves fresh basil
- ½ large red onion Can substitute in white onion if necessary.
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 F (200 C)
- Chop up the tomato, onion and basil leaves and place them all in a small bowl
- Dice the garlic (or use a garlic press), put it into a separate small bowl, and cover with the olive oil
- Spoon generous quantities of the oil and garlic mix onto the bread slices and place in the oven
- Leave the bread in the oven for about 10 minutes, until the garlic turns a nice cooked brown color. Do not let it burn!
- While the bread is in the oven, slice (or grate) the mozzarella cheese
- When the garlic on the bread is ready, take it out and top with mozzarella cheese
- Return the bread to the oven for about 5 minutes while the mozzarella melts. Watch it, don't let it burn.
- Take the bread out of the oven and place the prosciutto on top of the melted mozzarella
- Place generous spoonfuls of the tomato, onion, basil mixture on top of the bread which now has melted mozzarella and prosciutto
