Pesto Pasta

Pesto Pasta

Pesto Pasta by Louis, using an abundance of sweet basil harvested from the farm! 

Ingredients:
  • Basil-150g

 

  • Shredded Mozzarella-80g

 

  • One whole garlic

 

  • Olives oil-3 to 5 teaspoons

 

  • Almond- 30g (any nut of choice)

 

  • Some salt and mixed herbs on top

 

  • Pasta of choice

Instructions:

For pesto sauce:
  • Place the basil leaves and almond nuts into a food processor and pulse several times.

 

  • Add the garlic and cheese and continue blending.

 

  • Slowly add the olive oil.

 

  • Add salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.

For pasta:
  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Add pasta in. Stir occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 to 10 minutes before draining and placing pasta into a big bowl.

 

  • Add all of the pesto and toss. Thin the sauce with a bit of pasta water until desired consistency.

 

  • Garnish with more cheese, nuts and herbs if you wish!
