The Good Bit
- Whack the nuts and garlic in the blender and blend into a paste, add in the basil until the paste is a rich green throughout.
- Scoop this into your bowl and add the cheese and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, fold in gently, then add the oil a little at a time and beat in well, add the salt and pepper to taste.
- This goes really well on crackers! to serve, cut 1 slice of tomato and place on the cracker, top with a similar size slice of mozzarella then top with a teaspoonful of pesto
