Kalamata And Tomato Crostini - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 baguette, slice 1/2 inch slices
2 -3 garlic cloves, whole
1/2 cup kalamata olive, chopped fine
1/4 cup red pepper, chopped fine
1 tablespoon capers, rinsed and drained (combine with other ingredients, carefully, so you don't break them up)
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1 1/2 - 1 3/4 ounces fresh parmesan cheese, sliced thinly (I use a potato peeler)
2 plum tomatoes, sliced thinly
2 stalks green onions, green part only, sliced thin
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Preparation
-
Place baguette slices, evenly, on baking sheet. Place under broiler or bake in 350 degree oven, until lightly browned (about 4-5 minutes) turn and broil or bake for another 4-5 minutes or until lightly brown. Remove and set aside until cool enough to handle. Take clove of garlic and rub each slice of bread on one side. Set aside on serving platter.
Combine the next 4 ingredients and set aside.
Spread each baguette slice with Kalamata olive mixture, thin slices of Parmesan cheese, slice of tomato, sprinkle of green onion, and top with a drizzle of olive oil. 6 servings.
