Toast the bread slices, such that a little brown crust is formed. This will keep the bread for getting soggy with the oil/juices

Cut up the tomato, scoop out the seeds and gloopy pulp. Chop into fine pieces

Smash the garlic cloves with the back of a knife or a pestle and finely chop

Chop the basil leaves to get long thin strands

Combine the tomato, basil, garlic, salt, pepper, and olive oil in a bowl

Divide into two equal portions and spread on the toasted slices. Drizzle a bit of olive oil or pepper according to taste
