Ingredients




1kg ripe tomatoes
1 cucumber (about 10-15cm long)
1 medium size green pepper
1 small onion
1 clove garlic
2 small slices of bread
200 ml water
2 Table spoons Olive oil (Extra Virgin Olive Oil is the best)
2 Table spoons vinegar Salt to taste

Preparation

1 Optional: Bring a sauce pan of water to the boil. Using a knife make an X on each tomato and place them in the boiling water for a few seconds. Take out the tomatoes and let them cool down (you can place them in cold water). Once they are cooled down cut them and place in a bowl together with the rest of the vegetables. 2 Cut all vegetables into chunks and place in a food processor or a large bowl. 3 If you want to keep the tomato skin on, then just cut the tomatoes with the rest of the vegetables. 4 Add bread, water, garlic, Olive oil, vinegar, salt and tomatoes (if not already in). 5 Using a food processor or a hand blender blend until the soup is smooth. 6 Place in your fridge to cool down for at least an hour. 7 Serve in a bowl/jar/glass with some ice cubes and finely chopped vegetables. 8 Serves: 4
