Ingredients

  • 2 slices of bread
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small garlic clove, finely chopped
  • 2 chopped tomatoes or 200 g canned chopped tomatoes
  • 150 g drained ready-to-eat canned white beans
  • A pinch of dried oregano and black pepper

Method

  1. Warm the oil in a small pan over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and stir briefly without letting it brown.
  2. Add the tomatoes and oregano. Simmer until the mixture is as thick as you like.
  3. Stir in the beans and continue heating until the topping is hot throughout.
  4. Toast the bread and spoon over the topping just before eating.

Adjust the texture

Mash a few beans into the tomatoes for a thicker topping. If it looks dry, add a spoonful of water. Bread contains ingredients that may not suit everyone, so check its label and choose a suitable option for your needs.
