Tomato Almond Pesto

Course Sauce
Cuisine Italian
Keyword extra virgin olive oil, garlic, parsley, roast almonds, tomato paste
Total Time 15 minutes
Servings 2 cups

Ingredients

  • 200 g roast almonds
  • 100 g tomato paste
  • 1 large bunch flat leaf parsley (50g / 2oz)
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 cup extra virgin olive oil (200g / 7oz)
Metric - US Customary

Instructions

  1. Roughly chop parsley leaves and stems. Place almonds, tomato paste, parsley, garlic and a generous pinch of salt in the bowl of your food processor.

  2. Process for 1-2 minutes or until everything is very finely chopped and coming together as a thick paste. Scrape down the sides then puree for another few seconds.
  3. Add oil and stir in manually (or pulse with the food processor) - I find the flavour better when I stir.
  4. Taste and season with more salt as needed.
