Pan contamate literally translates to bread with tomato. It’s a Spanish dish from Catalonia and it’s loved all over for very good reason. Start by grating a tomato on the largest holes of a box grater. Discard the skin and add a bit of salt to draw out the water. Grill up some hearty bread like sourdough on both sides in a bit of olive oil. Then rub a clove of garlic all over. Drain the grated tomato from its water and mix in some good olive oil before topping your grilled bread. Finish with more olive oil and some flaky salt. This dish is really about the best quality ingredients you can find. That’s it. So simple and so delicious. [Music]

Ingredients
2 slices Sourdough or other hearty bread
1 medium-large Heirloom Tomato (or whichever variety is best near you)
1 clove Garlic
Good Olive Oil
Flaky Salt
Directions
1.Cut the tomato in half and grate the cut side on the large holes of a box grater that is set in a bowl.
2.Sprinkle the grated tomato with a bit of flaky salt to help release its water. Set aside.
3.Place the slices of bread in a hot pan with olive oil and grill until both sides are nicely browned.
4.Peel the garlic and cut the top part off the clove. Rub the garlic all over the bread.
5.Drain the grated, salted tomato that has been sitting and set it in a bowl with a drizzle of good olive oil and more flaky salt. Mix well.
6.Top each slice of grilled bread with a generous amount of the tomato and finish with more good olive oil and more flaky salt.
Lol so just an inferior bruschetta 😂
Fun fact….all salt is sea salt. Save your money and buy the cheap stuff.
bruschetta
It's not spanish it's Catalán and it isnt "pan con tomate" ts pa amb tumacat
Mmmmmm I’m making this
That looks delicious.
It Is very similar to the National dish of Malta Hobz biz-zejt
Shoutout to the saltverk hiding in the back. Probably some of the best salt I’ve ever found.
Where's the black pepper? Tomatoes must have black pepper.
Should I add olive oil on top of that olive oil?
Best food is the most simple and humble❤❤❤
too much olive oil
you used half a litre of oil for only a slice of bread, are you autistic?
Usually I don't know what to do with tomatoes so this answers it
its not pan, its PANG. like pong.
I love how Mediterranean cuisine is basically take 2-3 great quality ingredients, put them together. Voilà. That’s the recipe. If you don’t like it you just got bad climate that can’t grow tasty ingredients.
It seems so simple. I might try it if tomatoes didn’t make me puke.
Bro said pan😂 she’s funny who’s gonna tell her😂
Is not Catalan. Originally from the region of Murcia, South east, and the emigrants to Barcelona kept doing it as part of their daily food option.
Amazing ❤
Pa amb tomàquet is just delicious!
I'm laying down in bed getting ready to fall asleep, and all I can think of is eating this in the morning 😅 thankfully I've got all the ingredients!! Definitely eating this for breakfast 😋
Poverty food

I’m from Spain and I eat that for breakfast at least four times a week
