Summer Pesto<br />

INGREDIENTS<br />

2 cups packed fresh basil or rocket<br />

leaves, large stems removed<br />

3 Tbsp pine nuts, walnuts or<br />

sunflower seeds<br />

3 cloves garlic, peeled<br />

grated rind from 1 organic lemon<br />

2 Tbsp lemon juice<br />

3–4 Tbsp nutritional yeast (vegan<br />

option) or ½ cup grated Parmesan<br />

¼ tsp sea salt<br />

2–3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil<br />

3–6 Tbsp water<br />

METHOD<br />

1. Add the basil (or rocket), nuts, garlic, lemon rind, lemon<br />

juice, nutritional yeast and sea salt to a food processor and<br />

mix on a high setting until a loose paste forms.<br />

2. Add olive oil a little at a time (streaming in while the<br />

machine is on if possible) and scrape down sides as needed.<br />

3. Add 1 Tbsp water at a time until the desired consistency is<br />

reached.<br />

4. Store leftovers, covered in the fridge, for up to a week.<br />

After that, you can pour any remainder into ice cube<br />

moulds, freeze and store them to add to pasta sauces.
