Basil Pesto
Ingredients:
Method
Crush the basil leaves, salt and garlic together either in the food processor or pestle and mortar.
Add the pine nuts and oil a little at a time keeping blending until you have a rough paste.
Add the grated cheese and the last of the oil.
Mix well and store in the fridge in a covered jar.
I keep a layer of oil on top of the sauce, to maintain the colour and texture.
