We’ve taken a traditional tomato gazpacho and added a kick of spice with the help of chilli peppers. Deliciously refreshing during a warm summer’s day.
Our spicy tomato gazpacho only requires a handful of ingredients, takes 15 minutes and makes for a refreshing starter during the warmer months. Can be enjoyed alone for lunch or served to friends for a dinner party.
What you'll need...
- 4 Roma tomatoes
- 1 medium cucumber
- 1 red bell pepper
- ½ red onion
- 1 jalapeno pepper (you can add your favourite chilli pepper though)
- 420ml canned tomato sauce
- 2 garlic cloves
- Handful of fresh basil
- Handful of fresh parsley
- 120ml water
- 60ml olive oil
- 60ml white wine vinegar
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
Method
Quarter the Roma tomatoes, de-seed and quarter the pepper, peel and slice the cucumber and cut the red onion in half. Reserve 1 tomato and 2 slices of cucumber.
Place the veggies and tomatoes you haven’t reserved for later in a blender. Add the remaining ingredients and 3 tablespoons of the oil. Blend on high until smooth and creamy.
Take the reserved ingredients and finely chop them. Toss in a bowl with the extra tablespoon of oil and a pinch of salt. If you have any leftover herbs, add these too. Stir to combine.
Pour the soup into bowls and top with the chopped veggies and a crack of fresh black pepper. Enjoy with crusty bread!
