Pesto is an easy way to add flavour to your cheeseboard or create an entire meal by stirring thru pasta. This pesto has so much flavour with the earthiness of Lupi Extra Virgin Olive Oil and the spiciness of the horopito, your tastebuds will thank you!
RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS
In a mortar and pestle (or food processor) crush the basil, spinach and nuts until they are starting to blend and breakdown. Add the garlic, horopito and cheese and grind a little more.
Drizzle in the oil slowly to combine all ingredients until your mixture starts to resemble pesto. Add the salt and pepper and mix. Taste. Add more salt and/or pepper until your tastebuds start dancing for joy.
Serve with fresh focaccia bread and store in an airtight container in the fridge.
