Homemade Pesto Pasta
Recipe below ⬇️
The combination of sweet green basil and earthy purple basil creates a pesto that’s bursting with color and freshness and bold. Such a great depth of flavour!
For Pesto:
2 cup green italian basil
1 cup purple basil
2-3 garlic cloves
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/3 cup grated pecorino romano
3 tablespoons parmigiano reggiano
1/3 cup lightly toasted pine nuts ( optional)
Salt
Pepper
1 450g pack of pasta feeds 5-6 (orecchiette, spaghetti, fusilli)
1/3 cup reserved pasta water
**add basil, garlic, salt, pepper and a little of the olive oil to a blender or food processor. Blend on high. Now steam in the rest of olive oil if possible. Now add an 1 ice cube to preserve the colour while pasta cooks. (This part is optional if you're not concerned of pesto darkening quick) Now add in grated cheese and pine nuts if you want and blend until a fine thin consistency on high for 1-2 minutes.
**boil pasta as directed on box (al dente preferably)
**leave about 1/3-1/4 cups of pasta water
**strain the pasta and add into a serving bowl, add in the pesto and mix well. Serve with a little more parmigiano cheese
