Introduction

Strawberries work so well in a cold gazpacho soup. This recipe is the ideal starter to any barbecue this summer. You can make the strawberry gazpacho a day in advance and store it in the fridge. This will help the flavours in the soup to develop much better. Serve it in cold glasses with a garnish of fresh burrata cheese, diced strawberries, cucumber and mint.

Method

Prepare all the fruit and vegetables in advance and allow them to soak with a pinch of salt for at least 30 minutes.
In a food processor or using a stick blender in a large bowl, blend all the fruit and vegetables until smooth.
Add the olive oil on steady stream whilst the motor is on. Add sherry vinegar to taste and blend again. If the soup is a bit too thick you can add some water to help it achieve the right consistency. Season with salt to taste and chill in the refrigerator overnight.
The next day take the gazpacho out, whisk or blend together and serve in six tumbler glasses and garnish with a spoonful of the burrata cheese, some diced strawberries, diced cucumber, finely sliced mint and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
