1tbsp Water
50g Parmesan, grated
2 Garlic Cloves
50g Cashew Nuts
Grated Rind of 1 Lemon
150ml Extra Virgin Olive Oil
A Generous Grating of Nutmeg
Blitzed together in less than five minutes, this cheat’s pesto uses cashews instead of pine nuts as a cheaper, easier-to-get-hold-of substitute. I promise no one will know the difference.
