Ingredients
  

  • 1 bunch of fresh basil
  • 0.16 pounds (75-80 g) of parmesan cheese
  • 0.10 pounds (50 g) of pine nuts
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves of garlic

Instructions
 

  • Mix a bunch of washed basil leaves, separated, and olive oil in a food processor until it reaches a puree consistency.
  • Add the nuts and garlic and mix again.
  • Finally, after adding the cheese, mix for a few more seconds. Transfer it to a clean jar and pour olive oil over it. That’s all!

Notes

Nothing can replace the pesto sauce you prepare by crushing it in a bowl instead of a food processor.
