Here's what I do to make my own pesto, and don't be disappointed because I'm not reinventing anything here!!!
Here are the ingredients I use (sorry, no quantities as I eyeball everything depending on the amout of pesto I want to make)
- basil leaves
- roasted almonds (optional)
- parmesan cheese
- olive oil
- salt/pepper
- garlic (that I forgot to put in mine!!!)
I roughly chop my basil leaves and then I grate parmesan cheese and my garlic. Since I don't have pine nuts (because it's too expensive) I normally use roasted almonds and I grind them. Once all this is done, I blend everything with olive oil and a bit of salt and pepper. And that's it! You have a delicious homemade pesto!
Enjoy!
