  Ingredients list is slightly wrong: originally it was 2 tbsp pine nuts & 3 tbsp olive oil. Recipe was nice but its best to roast the pine nuts and possibly the garlic beforehand and to be careful with the lemon as the pesto can be quite sharp.

  Delicious, one of my favourite ways to have tagliatelle. We make it all the time, and have tried it with other types of cheese for example halloumi which also works well.
