Cooking Instructions
- 1
Roughly chop the asparagus, courgette, onions and garlic. Add these to a pan, add boiling water enough to just cover the veg and a pinch of salt. Blanch for 3-4 minutes.
- 2
Turn pan off the heat and allow to cool for a few minutes. do not drain the water! With a hand held blender (or transfer to a food processer), roughly blend untill you have a sauce consistency. Add the remaining ingredients apart from the Parmesan and blend further untill desired consistancy. I prefer mine still with a bit of texture so I dont completely purée it.

Reheat the sauce for about 5 minutes. Serve over pasta and add Parmesan over the top. If you want a protein with this, chicken or fish would go well, or even stir through some cooked pancetta. I served this with salmon.

Creamy Pesto Pasta Sauce Creamy Pesto Pasta Sauce
A great sauce for any pasta or anything else you like to use pesto for (sorry for the bad photo, it really is delicious!). The balsamic vinegar in this recipe pairs well with dishes that contain tomatoes. Goes excellent with the Sun-dried Tomato Pasta - See my recipe here: https://cookpad.wasmer.app/us/recipes/271714-sun-dried-tomato-pasta-doughMakes enough for 4 servings of pasta.Recipe from an "Infused Pasta" cooking class I took at the Seasoned Farmhouse in Columbus, Ohio by Chef Tom Hughes.Notes: You can use any other green herbs or leafy greens in place of basil. You can also substitute any nut in place of the pine nuts. Almonds are the closest flavor to pine nuts, but cheaper. Felice -
Pesto Genovese & Bell Pepper Pasta Sauce Pesto Genovese & Bell Pepper Pasta Sauce
I made this upon request. Tomato sauce with baked paprika and homemade pesto genovese makes a really delicious sauce.There's no cheese in the pesto genovese, so I add it in.If you mix the paprika in the food processor for 10 seconds, some grains will remain. To get it smooth, alternate between on and off for a few seconds. It's plenty delicious without cream, but don't forget the olive oil. Recipe by Brandy cookpad.japan -
