Peel and pit the avocado. Pick and wash the basil. Combine all ingredients (except the grated Parmesan) in a tall bowl and puree with an immersion blender. Finally, stir in the grated cheese and season with salt and pepper. Cook the pasta. If you prefer it a little thicker, you can dilute the pesto with the pasta cooking water.
