DRESSING/SAUCE
PESTO SAUCE
Makes approximately 1½ cups
INGREDIENTS
2 cups firmly packed basil leaves (approx 1 large
bunch basil)
2 cloves garlic
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/3 cup pine nuts, toasted
60g grated Parmesan cheese
½ cup olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
METHOD
1. Place all ingredients into blender jug
in the order listed. Place lid on jug.
Select Speed 2/CHOP, blend until all
ingredients are very finely chopped and
almost smooth. Scrape down sides of
blender if necessary.
2. Spoon into an airtight container and
chill until ready to use.

Pesto will keep in an airtight container in
the refrigerator for a few days. Pour a little
extra oil over the top of the pesto and place
a piece of plastic wrap on top of the pesto.
This will prevent excess browning.
