2) Then immediately remove the tomato and refresh it under cold running tap water. Then peel de tomato. Chop it into 4 bits and remove the seeds inside. Chop up the tomato flesh.

3) Pour a little olive oil in a small pan and add the freshly chopped tomato. Season with a little pepper and salt. Stir and fry the tomato for a couple of minutes until it is soft and has fallen apart. You should end up with a paste.

5) Spread the tomato paste on top. Garnish the sliced bread with the cured ham and the mozzarella. Sprinkle with a little pepper. Then grill the crostini for another couple of minutes until the mozzarella has kind of melted.
