Broccilli Pesto**********

Serves: 4 (with Pasta)

See  my other Pesto recipes for variations.  This photo reflects opportunism in good buys.  Today, I got a great buy on broccoli and kale and a reasonable one on cashews, whilst basil and walnuts were quite expensive.  This turned out really, really good with a mash up with my Linguine recipe.  I just swapped the pesto and beans in it, with this!  Yum...

Ingredients

    Salt
    4 cups broccoli florets/spinach (packed)
    ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus extra for grating
    ½ cup walnuts
    3 Garlic Cloves
    ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
    ½ cup packed basil leaves
    Ground black pepper

Instructions

Bring 1 tablespoon of salt and 3 litres/quarts of water to boil in a large soup kettle. Add broccoli and cook until just tender and still bright green, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and transfer to a food processor.

Add the Parmesan, nuts, oil, basil, and a generous sprinkling of salt and pepper and process to pesto texture.

Add 227grams, ½ pound bite-size pasta, such as penne and  2 ears corn, kernels removed (about 1 cup) for a pasta meal.  Other pasta forms and veggies can be used for variety.
