Step by step

Get ahead
Make the gazpacho at least 3 hours before serving. It keeps for a day in the fridge.
  1. A few hours before serving, roughly chop the vegetables, discarding the seeds. Reserve a small handful of the veg for the salsa.
  2. Puttherestofthevegina blender or food processor with the vinegar, 2 tablespoons of oil, half the paprika, 40g bread and the stock. Purée until very smooth, adding extra bread if you want it thicker. Season to taste. Cover and chill for at least 3 hours (add a few ice cubes if you want to speed things up).
  3. Dice the apple and reserved veg, and mix for the salsa. Mix the seeds with the remaining paprika. Pour the gazpacho into 6 bowls or glasses. Add the salsa, a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil if you wish, and the smoky seeds.
