Enough for 6
  • 100ml olive oil
  • large bunch of basil
  • 3 cloves of garlic
  • 3 tbsp pine kernels, toasted lightly
  • 3 tbsp grated parmesan
Method/steps
  1. Put the basil, garlic, pine kernels and a little S&P into a food processor/liquidiser.
  2. Work to a paste.
  3. Add enough olive oil to get a loose puree.
  4. Pour into a bowl and stir in the parmesan.
  5. DON'T put the cheese in the processor or you end up with something akin to wallpaper paste.
Additional Tips
That's it really, you can use different mixtures of herbs and/or different nuts depending on what you have.
