Easy Spinach Pesto (no blender)
Servings 1 cup (approx)
Ingredients
- 250 g frozen spinach
- 1 clove garlic crushed
- 50 g grated parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
PLUS Ingredient
- handful cashews or pinenuts
Instructions
- Place spinach in a heat-proof bowl. Cover with boiling water and allow to stand for a few minutes while the spinach defrosts (this is cooking your spinach as well).
- Drain spinach and squeeze out the excess moisture. Place back in the bowl.
- Stir in the crushed garlic, parmesan and oil.
- Taste and season with a little salt, if needed (It may not because of the Parmesan)
- If using the plus ingredient, finely chop the nuts and stir through.
