Ingredients
 

  • 30 g Pine nuts
  • 30 g Flaked almonds
  • 1 pot Fresh basil
  • 1 sake Solo garlic chopped
  • 1 half a teaspoon Coarse sea salt
  • 1 half a teaspoon Black pepper from the mill
  • 30 g Parmesan
  • 30 g Grated Pecorino
  • 150 ml Good olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Lightly toast the pine nuts in a dry pan (just until they begin to take on color), then immediately pour them onto a cold plate to cool. Do the same with the almond flakes.
  • Pluck the basil leaves from the stalks, coarsely chop them into a slim tall vessel with the other ingredients and mix with the hand blender, gradually adding the oil. Fill pesto into small jars - cover the surface with a little oil before sealing so that the contents will keep in the refrigerator for several weeks.
  • Cook the spaghetti in salted boiling water until al dente, then drain and collect some of the cooking stock. Pour the pasta into a warmed bowl and mix with the pesto and a little cooking stock, then serve immediately.
  • There was also grilled chicken breasts on peperonata ... a happy memory of a wonderful day in Italy. My husband said: hmmm, we'll do that again soon!
