  • Remove the skin and place them in the food processor.
  • Boil the water over medium heat.
  • Remove the stem of each tomato and make a cross on the bottom side with a knife.
  • Place them in boiling water for 30-40 seconds. Transfer them to a bowl with ice cold water. Remove the skin. You are practically blanching the tomatoes.
  • Transfer the tomatoes to the food processor. Add the cucumber, onion, olive oil, vinegar, salt, pepper, paprika and garlic. Beat until homogenized.
  • Strain through a thin strainer and refrigerate for 2 hours.

To serve:

  • Remove the seeds from the tomato and the cucumber. Cut them in ½ cm. cubes. Mix them and garnish the soup.
  • Add 1 teaspoon of coconut cream to each bowl. Sprinkle with pumpkin seeds and serve.
