SEA VEG PESTO

My sister-in-law recently made pesto from sea veg, I think she used sea radish in place of basil.  It was delicious and had a more autumn flavour than basil.

My go-to pesto recipe is from the Sliver Spoon (Italian cookbook), you can replace the basil with any sea veg of your choice. Fantastic to create a quick dinner in the evening.

INGREDIENTS
25 basil leaves (replace basil with sea veg)
2 garlic cloves
5 tbls extra virgin olive oil
25g percorino cheese, grated
25g parmesan cheese, grated

METHOD
Put the basil or sea veg, garlic and olive oil into blender and blitz, then add the cheese and blitz again

Enjoy!
