Red pesto with olives, piri-piri and thyme

Drain the tomatoes and reserve the oil. Drain the olives. Peel the garlic cloves, halve them, and remove the small core, then press them. Deseed the piri-piri and roughly chop. Pluck the thyme leaves from the stems. Blend the tomatoes, olives, Parmesan (or other hard cheese), walnuts, piri-piri, and garlic with 100 ml of oil. For an even more intense flavor, you can replace the drained oil from the tomatoes with olive oil. Now add the thyme leaves and blend briefly again. Finally, season with salt.
