Directions

1

Add all the ingredients and half the oil to a hand mixer and whizz. Keep adding oilve oil until the desired pesto consistency is reached (I ended up using approximately half a cup). Make sure you mix it once or twice while blending so all the bits are blended and not whole. This will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for a week or so. It can also be frozen.
