Misfit Garden Crackin' Coriander Pesto
- 1 bunch fresh coriander leaves (& stalks!)
- 1 clove garlic - crushed
- 60g any nut of your choice (This works with cashews, pinenuts, peanuts, almonds, walnuts.... you name it!)
- 2 tbsp parmesan cheese finely grated (for vegan, use nutritional yeast)
- 1 Lemon (juice & zest)
- A good glug of olive oil
- Optional chilli
- Salt & pepper to taste
Method
-
In a food processor blitz the parmesan and garlic, and set aside.
-
Then place the coriander and nuts in the processor and pulse until just chopped. (Make sure you add all the coriander. Stalks & cleaned roots! Thats where all the flavour is)
-
Add in the parmesan, lemon juice & zest and olive oil (and optional chilli if you're feeling adventurous!) until combined.
-
Serve & enjoy! Perfect with pasta, pizza or as a side with your favourite BBQ'd meat/veggie.
For Storage
Place in a jar and drizzle with a little olive oil to seal it from oxidising and prevent colour change. Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
