Journal sbszine's Journal: Gazpacho Recipe
It's summer here in Australia, and over the festive season we traditionally have barbeques where we consume refreshing cold things. One such thing is gazpacho, which I like to make thusly:
Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 tomato
- 1 small cucumber
- half an avocado
- half small spanish (red salad) onion
- 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 1.5 tbsp olive oil
- 3 tsp oregano leaves (fresh if possible)
- 4 cups tomato juice
Method
Chop fruits, then combine everything except the tomato juice in a jug or bowl. Stir this salady mixture for a bit -- the idea is to let the fruit absorb the oil so that it doesn't float to the surface of the soup. You could even let it stand for an hour if you like. Then add the tomato juice, stir some more, and refrigerate. Serve cold with lime wedges and ice cubes.
If you prefer a spicier gazpacho, add chipotles or smoked pimento powder to taste.
