Pesto

Flat leaf parsley pesto

When I was out and about recently I nipped into see Gordon at Caldwells Veg and purchased a veg box when I was there. One of the items in the box was flat leaf parsley which got me thinking about what to do with it and hence why I made this pesto.

Ingredients (unless baking I'm not known for measuring accurately and believe it should all be about the taste)

a good handful of flat leaf parsley (I included stalks but I know a lot of people find them bitter to taste)

1/2 a red cayenne chilli

a good glug of Summer Harvest rapeseed oil

2 tablespoons freshly grated parmesan

Method

Put all the ingredients except the oil into the food processor. Whiz for a second or two, add the oil to a consistency that suits. Taste and correct balance of ingredients if required. I added to some pasta for a quick and easy evening meal.
