Ingredients
Method
Soften bread
- Tear the bread into pieces and soak in a little cold water for 5 minutes; squeeze out excess.
Blend and chill
- Roughly chop tomato, cucumber, pepper and garlic. Blend with bread, oil, lemon juice and salt until smooth (or leave slightly chunky).
- Taste and adjust salt or lemon. Chill at least 1 hour (ideally 2) before serving ice-cold.
Serving
Serve well chilled in bowls or glasses, with a drizzle of oil and diced vegetable garnish if liked.
Storage
Refrigerate up to 2 days. Stir before serving; do not freeze (texture suffers).
