Preparation

Step 1

Start by dry frying the pine nuts in a frying pan until golden brown, but watch them carefully because they burn very quickly!

Step 2

Allow the pine nuts to cool then add all the ingredients to a food processor.

Step 3

Blend for about 30 seconds, until the pesto reaches your desired consistency. I like blending mine quite well but leaving a few little chunks rather than making it completely smooth.

Step 4
