Ingredients
50 g shelled pistachios
225 g fresh spinach leaves
50 g fresh flat parsley leaves
75 g parmesan cheese
2 cloves garlic
1/4 tsp salt
120 ml extra-virgin olive oil
Step by step
Toast pistachio nuts in a skillet over medium heat until fragrant, tossing occasionally to ensure even toasting, for about 5 minutes.
Combine all of the pesto ingredients, except the olive oil, in a jug of a blender and pulse. Add the olive oil slowly until well combined but still rough-textured.
Spread on sandwiches or stir into pasta.
You may not use all of the oil or you made need a bit more to get to the desired consistency.
