  Delicious. Just stuck to the recipe and I'm converted. Will never use shop bought pesto again.

  This was so easy and really yummy! Way better than store bought stuff - and minus the wheatflour, which was my primary reason for making it myself.

  for those who are not sure what amount of basil to use, its usually 2 firmly packed cups, 1 cup = 45g this goes well with mixed with curled salad leaves as a side. Also try this with both creamy and grilled polenta, bbq fish, pan fried lamb and beef. other great pesto's i have made are red pepper, rocket and mint and coriander and chilli.
