TOMATILLO, TOMATO AND AVOCADO GAZPACHO



Tomatillo, Tomato and Avocado Gazpacho image

Avocados contribute a creamy texture to this spicy gazpacho.I wanted to make this with tomatillos only, but found that what makes a great salsa doesn't necessarily make a great gazpacho. So I added tomatoes to the creamy mixture. I don't like the color as much, but I love the taste. If you can find green zebra tomatoes, use them for the nice green color. Make sure to strain this because the tomatillo seeds won't blend.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     soups and stews, appetizer

Time 30m

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound tomatillos, papery shells removed, rinsed
2 slices red or white onion
2 to 3 garlic cloves, to taste
2 serrano chiles or 1 jalapeño, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 to 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (to taste)
1 large ripe avocado
1/2 cup chopped cilantro, plus additional cilantro for garnish
1 teaspoon lightly toasted cumin seeds, ground
Salt to taste
Few drops of vinegar
1 pound ripe tomatoes, preferably green zebras
Freshly squeezed lime juice for serving

Steps:

  • Place the tomatillos in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer 8 to 10 minutes, flipping them over halfway through, until olive green and softened. Drain and transfer to a blender.
  • Meanwhile put the onion slices in a bowl, cover with cold water and add a few drops of vinegar. Let sit for 5 minutes while you prepare the remaining ingredients. Drain and rinse with cold water. Cut in half or into smaller pieces.
  • Add the onions and remaining ingredients plus a cup of cold water and blend until smooth. You will probably have to do this in two batches. Strain through a medium strainer, taste and adjust seasonings. Chill for two hours or longer. Garnish each bowl with chopped cilantro and a few drops of lime juice.

GAZPACHO GRANITA WITH CHOPPED GAZPACHO SALAD, AVOCADO AND FLAME GRILLED SHRIMP IN JALAPENO CILANTRO OIL



Gazpacho Granita with Chopped Gazpacho Salad, Avocado and Flame Grilled Shrimp in Jalapeno Cilantro Oil image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h50m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 27

8 ripe tomatoes, seeded and roughly chopped
1 red bell pepper, seeded and roughly chopped
1 orange bell pepper, seeded and roughly chopped
1/2 English cucumber, roughly chopped
1/4 cup cilantro, leaves roughly chopped
1/2 cup vegetable juice
2 tablespoons champagne vinegar
Kosher salt
1 cup ripe cherry tomatoes, halved
1 red bell pepper, seeded and finely diced
1 orange bell pepper, seeded and finely diced
1/2 English cucumber, finely diced
1/2 red onion, finely minced
1 green jalapeno, finely minced
1 lime, zested and juiced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon champagne vinegar
Pinch kosher salt
1 bunch cilantro, leaves roughly chopped
1 lime, zested and juiced
1 green jalapeno, roughly chopped
1/4 cup olive oil
Olive oil, for grill
Kosher salt
18 to 24 shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 avocado, halved, pitted and flesh finely diced
Lime juice, to taste

Steps:

  • Granita: Add all the granita ingredients to a blender or food processor and puree. Strain the puree through a sieve into a medium bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 to 45 minutes. Transfer the chilled puree into a wide, shallow, heavy-bottomed container. (The shallower and wider the container, the more room you give the granita to freeze quickly.) Cover with foil or plastic wrap and freeze until it begins to appear solid around the edges, about 1 hour. Using a fork, scrape the ice from sides, mixing in from the edges into the center. Repeat this scraping and mixing process every 30 minutes, until the entire mixture has the consistency of shaved ice. Put back in freezer until ready to use.
  • Chopped salad: Combine all of the ingredients in a large bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Shrimp: Combine the cilantro, lime zest and juice, jalapeno and olive oil in a blender or food processor. Set aside.
  • If using a gas grill, preheat the grill to high, direct heat. If using coals, allow the coals to burn down to glowing white embers. The grill is hot enough when you can hold your hand about 1-inch over it for only 1 second. Lightly grease the grill with olive oil to prevent sticking. Lightly salt the shrimp and thread each skewer with 3 shrimp. Grill shrimp approximately 2 minutes per side, basting with cilantro oil twice. Remove the shrimp from the grill and add the remaining cilantro oil to a small pan. Heat the oil until bubbling.
  • Add the avocado to a small bowl and drizzle with lime juice.
  • To serve, spoon some of the chopped salad on each serving plate and top with some granita. Add a few teaspoons of avocado, a skewer of shrimp and a drizzle of the hot cilantro oil. Serve immediately.

CUCUMBER-AVOCADO GAZPACHO



Cucumber-Avocado Gazpacho image

I love this recipe when I'd like a cold soup but need a break from classic Spanish tomato-based gazpacho. Avocado is a nontraditional ingredient for gazpacho, but it makes a creamy and refreshing base when blended with almonds and cooling cucumber. I add lots of fresh herbs to brighten everything up. Give it a try and save those tomatoes for sauce!

RAW VEGAN AVOCADO GAZPACHO



Raw Vegan Avocado Gazpacho image

This easy Summer cooler is like "liquid guacamole" that kicked me into a pleasure-induced coma that had me "coat-checking" my teeth and dreaming up a recipe for a "taco in a glass". I have deliberately kept this soup simple. It is deceptively rich - with a subtle flavour that dances across the palate before leaving a lasting impression. Have a few tastes before you add more pizzazz. Also, allow for some chilling time to allow the flavours to infuse. Traditional gazpacho is made with cold water with purists serving it at room temperature. However, I find that avocados can get a bit warm after being blended; and I prefer to enjoy this soup chilled. I served this soup as a main meal garnished with extra avocado, tomato, cilantro, and green onions. If you serve it with all the toppings in soup bowls - this recipe serves about 4 - 6 people. But, those of you who are less indulgent avocado connoisseurs, you can stretch this recipe to 8 people and serve it in small ramekins for an appetizer.
