Tomato Consommé with Cucumber and Watermelon Balls

Method

 
1. Put the tomatoes, cucumber and herbs in a liquidiser, and blend to purée.

2. Pour into a muslin-lined sieve set over a large bowl. Push the purée through the muslin, pressing hard with the back of a wooden spoon. Leave in the fridge for 2-3 hours to chill.

3. Using a melon baller, make some neat balls of cucumber and watermelon.

4. Place a few balls in individual serving bowls, with some tiny sprigs of herbs.

5. Ladle in the tomato consommé, and drizzle with olive oil.
