Bruschetta. Not very adventurous, not difficult, not sophisticated. But I have watched “Julie & Julia” again and made it right after the movie finished. Julie has fried bread on lots of butter. It was dark golden, crunchy and moist. I normally grill it with olive oil. but noooooooo, butter is the way forward methinks.

That fantastic bread I put lovingly on the plate and topped with chopped tomato, basil and shallot mixture and freshly grated ( the only way again!) parmesan. YUMMMMMMMM!!!!
