Pesto Sauce



* receipe adapted from "Two Greedy Italians" by Antonio Carluccio and Gennaro Contaldo. This pesto sauce is really good and you can use it for pasta, bread, soup, almost anything!

Ingredients
2tbsp pine kennels
1 garlic clove
1/2 tsp salt
80g basil leaves (stalks removed)
200ml extra virgin olive oil
2tbsp freshly grated pecorino or parmesan cheese

How to Make:
just add all the above to a mortar and grind to a paste. If you have a blender, even easier, mix everything in the blender and blend until it becomes a smooth paste. Add more basil or oil as you think fit.

Store in fridge for about a week.
