This is my economic version of pesto that uses almonds instead of pine nuts - it much cheaper to make and tastes just as good! These quantities will make about 300mls of pesto and should take you about 5 minutes to make.
Ingredients
50g almonds (flaked, whole or ground)
5 cloves of garlic
50g frozen chopped basil
50g frozen chopped parsley
25g parmesan cheese
65g olive oil
juice of half a lemon
salt and pepper to taste
To make: put all the ingredients into a blender and whizz for about 20-30 seconds. Season and adjust quantities to taste.
