Rukmini Iyer’s quick and easy recipe for watermelon and tomato gazpacho with rosemary croutons | Quick and easy

This chilled soup is the ultimate cool customer for summer

I can’t make gazpacho without thinking of Pedro Almodóvar’s Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown. If you haven’t seen it, I highly recommend that you do, and not just for the iconic spiked gazpacho scene. This version is also spiked, but more tamely with watermelon, which lends a wonderful sweetness. You can go as simple or as extra as you like with the toppings: I, of course, like to go extra with cherry tomatoes of varying colours, ice cubes, micro basil, finely cubed cucumber and a swirl of my best extra-virgin olive oil to finish.
