Refreshing Summer Watermelon Gazpacho

As the summer heat lingers, I find myself craving light and refreshing dishes that are not only delicious but also help beat the heat. Today, I am excited to share with you my recipe for a unique and flavorful Watermelon Gazpacho that is sure to cool you down and tantalize your taste buds.

To start, you will need the following ingredients:

• 1 small watermelon, diced (about 500g)
• 1 cucumber, peeled and chopped (about 200g)
• 1/2 red onion, finely chopped (about 50g)
• 1 red bell pepper, seeded and diced (about 150g)
• 2 tomatoes, diced (about 300g)
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
• Handful of fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
• Salt and pepper to taste

Before we begin, make sure to gather the following kitchen tools:

• chef’s knife
• cutting board
• blender
• mixing bowl
• wooden spoon

To prepare the gazpacho, start by combining the diced watermelon, cucumber, red onion, red bell pepper, and tomatoes in a blender. Blend until smooth and then pour the mixture into a mixing bowl. Add the olive oil, red wine vinegar, chopped cilantro, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine all the flavors.

Once the gazpacho is well mixed, cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together. When ready to serve, give the gazpacho a good stir and taste for seasoning, adjusting with more salt or pepper if needed.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 1300g, which serves 4. Each serving weighs around 325g, with an estimated calorie count of 150 per serving.

One unusual tip for this Watermelon Gazpacho is to serve it in chilled bowls for an extra refreshing experience. Simply place your serving bowls in the fridge for a few minutes before ladling in the gazpacho to keep it cool and enjoyable.

I hope you enjoy making and savoring this unique Watermelon Gazpacho recipe. Feel free to get creative and add your own twist by incorporating different herbs or spices. Cheers to a cool and delicious summer dish!
