INGREDIENTS


 

  • 300g very ripe vine tomatoes
  • 2 Romano peppers, halved & deseeded
  • 2 cloves garlic, peeled
  • 75g baguette, inside only – no crust
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) Spanish sherry vinegar
  • 80ml Spanish extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 egg, hardboiled & chopped
  • 2 slices Serrano ham (or Prosciutto), sliced into thin strips

METHOD


 

  • Bring a large pot of water to the boil. Have ready another bowl with chilled water and ice. Cut a small cross in the bottom of each tomato. Scald the tomatoes in the hot water for 30-60 seconds. Remove and plunge in the iced water. When cool enough to handle peel off the skin. Cut in half and remove the seeds.
  • Add the tomatoes to a stand blender and whiz on high for a few minutes. Add the Romano peppers and garlic and blend until smooth.
  • Add the bread and let soak for 5 minutes. Add the vinegar. On high setting, slowly drizzle in the olive oil and blend until emulsified. Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  • Serve garnished with a swirl of olive oil, chopped egg and Serrano ham strips.
