Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 units Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 cups Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 tablespoon Tomato paste
- 0.25 cup Vegetable broth
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 2 tablespoons Fresh basil leaves, chopped
- 4 slices Sourdough or whole-grain bread slices (dairy-free)
- 1 tablespoon Avocado oil or olive oil (for toasting bread)
- 0.25 teaspoon Red chili flakes (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Heat a medium-sized skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1 minute, stirring constantly to avoid burning.
Stir in the halved cherry tomatoes and cook for 5-7 minutes, until they start to soften and release their juices.
Add the tomato paste, vegetable broth, salt, black pepper, and dried oregano to the skillet. Stir well to combine.
Let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens into a sauce-like consistency.
Turn off the heat and mix in the chopped fresh basil leaves. Set the tomato sauce aside.
In a separate skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of avocado or olive oil over medium heat.
Toast the bread slices in the skillet for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden and crispy. Alternatively, use a toaster if preferred.
Place the toasted bread on a serving plate and spoon the savory tomato sauce generously over the top of each slice.
Garnish with a sprinkle of red chili flakes if desired, and serve warm.
