1. Preheat your oven or toaster to toast the bread slices until golden brown and crisp. Alternatively, you can use a grill pan for a charred effect.
2. While the bread is toasting, take the ripe tomatoes and grate them on the coarse side of a box grater. Discard the skins once grated.
3. Peel the garlic clove and cut it in half.
4. Once the bread is toasted, rub the cut side of the garlic clove over the surface of the hot bread for a hint of garlic flavor.
5. Spoon the freshly grated tomato pulp generously over the bread slices, spreading it evenly.
6. Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil over the tomato-topped bread.
7. Sprinkle the salt evenly over the surface, and add a pinch of black pepper if desired.
8. Serve immediately and enjoy your Tostada Con Tomate!
