Cut the vegetables into fine cubes. I take the 3 mm slice from the meat grinder, it`s less work and no difference in taste.
Then place the vegetables in a bowl. Mix the tomato puree with the vegetable stock, vinegar, oil, garlic and chilli and pour over it. Season to taste with salt, pepper and sugar and serve really cold (on ice).
I eat toasted farmer`s bread with it, grated with garlic, lightly salted and drizzled with olive oil. Great on hot midsummer days!
