  • About

The combination of almond and tomato works well. This pesto is great on canapés and can be used with grilled veg and to dress pasta, perhaps with chopped fresh chilli when it’s like a dry arrabbiata sauce.

Ingredients

  • 125 g ( oz) sun-dried tomatoes
  • 1 large garlic clove, roughly chopped

Method

  1. Using a mortar and pestle or food processor, blend the sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, vinegar, basil and sugar with the olive oil. Start with as little oil as possible to keep the herb’s colour; once it is making a smoothish paste you can add the rest.
  2. Add the nuts and blend briefly to a lumpy purée. Season with salt to taste. Store in the fridge for up to a month.</
