Claire’s Coriander Pesto

Ingredients

  • 1 garlic clove
  • 50g blanched almonds (pine nuts, walnuts or cashews)
  • 30g fresh coriander leaves and stalks
  • Juice and zest of 1 lemon
  • 6 tablespoons olive oil
  • lime & salt to taste

Method

  • Blend the coriander and olive oil until combined.
  • Add remaining ingredients and process into a lumpy paste, adjusting consistency and flavour with extra oil, lemon or a splash of water if needed.
  • Keep a jar in the fridge to stir into pasta, add to stir-fries, liven up a sandwich or serve as sauce alongside fish or meat dishes. This will last about 1 week in the fridge; you could also freeze portions an ice cube tray and pulled out whenever needed.
