Instructions: 1. To prepare the romesco sauce: Put the tomato and garlic into a small baking pan and roast in a preheated 400-degree oven 20-25 minutes, until tender and starting to brown.

2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a small skillet set on medium heat. Add the bread crumbs and almonds, cooking until golden.

3. Puree the roasted tomato and garlic in a food processor.

Add the bread crumb mixture, processing until the almonds are very finely chopped. Add the crushed pepper, cayenne, salt, 4 tablespoons vinegar and the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil. Process until thickened.

4. To prepare the salad: Cut the potato in half, place in a saucepan, cover with water and cook until tender, about 20-25 minutes. Drain; peel and cut into thin slices.

5. Cover the onion with cold water and set aside 10 minutes.

Drain and pat dry. Bring a pan of water to the boil, add the beans and cook 5 minutes, until tender. Remove the beans with a slotted spoon to a bowl of ice water. Bring the water back to a boil, add the zucchini and time 1 minute. Add to the beans in the ice water. When chilled, drain and pat dry.
