Ingredients:
- 3 big handfuls of Farmer Foster's famous spicy rocket
- ½ cup insecticide-free almonds
- ½ cup organic parmesan, roughly grated
- Zest of 1 organic lemon
- 150 mls organic extra virgin olive oil, plus extra for covering pesto to preserve.
- 2 generous pinches of salt
Method:
In the bowl of a food processor, blitz almonds until they are roughly chopped before adding the grated parmesan, lemon zest, salt & rocket. Give a quick blitz (about 30 seconds) before drizzling the 150 mls oil over in a continuous stream. Once the oil has all been added, allow the pesto to mix for a moment until it’s well combined.
