To prepare Pesto sauce, you will need the following ingredients:

  • Basil (30 g)
  • Macadamia nuts or others (45 g)
  • Pine nuts (15 g)
  • Garlic (4 cloves)
  • lemon zest (1 tsp)
  • Lemon juice (1 tbsp)
  • Olive oil (120 ml)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Grated cheese (30 g)

Place in a blender olive oil (120 ml), washed basil, peeled garlic, lemon juice and zest, nuts (macadamia or others, 45 g), and a small amount of salt and pepper to taste.

Blend all ingredients until you achieve a homogeneous mass.

If you want to add a bit of zest, optionally add grated cheese (30 g) and blend the mixture again until all components are fully combined.

The finished Pesto sauce can be served with meat dishes or salads.

For storage, pour a little olive oil on top, close tightly, and keep in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
