Method

Chop the cucumber and melon. Blend with the crème fraîche, 25 g of oil and salt until smooth. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Cut the bread into 1 cm cubes. Toss with the remaining 15 g of oil and toast in a pan over medium heat for 6–8 minutes, stirring, until golden on several sides. Cool.
Wash and halve the cherry tomatoes. Stir the soup, divide between four bowls and add the tomatoes, bread and chopped parsley just before eating.
