Bruschetta

I'm a big fan of canapes. Always keen to try new ways of presenting it. For this receipe, you can vary the toppings according to your liking. I've tried it with tuna mayo, spicy prawns... Up to your imagination!

Ingredients (Makes 20)
20 slices baguette, 1cm thick
1 clove of garlic, crushed
4 tbsp olive oil

Method
Preheat oven 180 degrees celsius.

Brush the baguette slices with olive oil and garlic.

Place them on a baking sheet and bake for 8 mins and until lightly golden brown.

Topping
5 ripe tomatoes, seeded and diced
1 clove garlic, crushed
1/2 medium red onion, chopped finely
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
Salt and pepper to taste
20 tiny basil sprigs to garnish

Method
Mix all ingredients together.

Spoon into the baguette slices.

Garnish with basil sprigs.

Serve.
