Quarter the tomatoes and remove the cores, then cut the flesh into very small cubes. Peel and finely dice the onion and garlic cloves. Place everything in a bowl and mix with salt, pepper, vinegar, sugar, chili flakes, and the grated lemon zest. Finally, add the oil. Now cut the bread open and rub it with garlic.
