Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large Tomatoes
- 1 large English cucumber
- 1 medium Red bell pepper
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 0.5 medium Red onion
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley or basil (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Wash all the vegetables thoroughly.
Using a sharp knife, core and roughly chop the tomatoes. Peel and roughly chop the cucumber, red bell pepper, and red onion into chunks for easier blending.
Peel the garlic cloves and prepare all other ingredients for blending.
Place the chopped tomatoes, cucumber, red bell pepper, red onion, and garlic into a blender or food processor.
Add the olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, black pepper, and water to the blender.
Blend on high until the mixture is smooth, adjusting the consistency with additional water if needed. For a chunkier texture, pulse the blender instead of blending continuously.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary (add more salt, pepper, or vinegar to your liking).
Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours for the flavors to meld together. If in a rush, serve immediately with ice cubes in the bowls to keep it cold.
Serve the gazpacho in bowls or glasses, garnished with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of fresh parsley or basil if desired.
Enjoy your refreshing and easy gazpacho!
