Ingredients: 1 ciabatta loaf; 2 tbsp virgin olive oil, plus extra for drizzling; 1 garlic clove, cut in half; 500g mixed tomatoes, roughly chopped; 1 red onion, finely chopped; Basil leaves, torn; Balsamic vinegar, to serve

Using a mix of tomatoes gives a good range of flavours – we used cherry for sweetness and vine-ripened for a stronger taste. Slices of ciabatta toast well and keep crisp under the topping.
