About This Recipe
Gazpacho is a popular dish that originated in Spain. Served as a chilled dish, it is actually a soup that is made using raw vegetables and especially tomatoes as the base. Along with Spain, this is even relished with particular fondness in Portugal.
It is mostly sipped during summer and going by my experiences, I can say that Gazpacho not only cools you down but it even recharges you. You can make as many variations of Gazpacho as you want by using cucumber, avocados, parsley, watermelon, grapes, meat et al.
I prepared my own variation by using mango and orange. Mango and orange being the most versatile fruits have been used by me in countless coolers, milkshakes, salads, and dressings. Hence, when it came to preparing Gazpacho, I straight away thought of making it with Mangoes and Oranges.
With all the main ingredients such as mango, orange, cucumber, onion, mint leaves et al by the side, all it takes is one mix up in the blender with pepper, olive oil, salt, and sugar, that’s it!
After mixing and garnishing, I kept it in the refrigerator in order to cool it more. The chilled version turned to be way more flavorful.
