Last week zia tata was not in her kitchen . I was away for a few days enjoying the seaside !
When I came back our garden offered me a whole bunch of zucchini. So what to do with them … considering that my last post was homemade pesto let’s continue the trend with homemade zucchini pesto.
Ingredients.
- 2 medium zucchini
- 30 g Pine nuts
- 40 g Parmesan cheese
- 60 ml EVO
- 20 g basil leaves
- 1 clove of garlic
- Some thyme
- Pinch of salt
Take the zucchini and grate them with a grater ( large holes) and let them drain in a colander for 30 minutes, put them in a tea towel squeeze them ( so you press out the liquid )
Put the grated zucchini, basil leaves,pine nuts, garlic, the thyme ,half of the EVO in a food processor or blender.
Blend everything together for one minute, now add the Parmesan cheese and the remaining oil, blend again until you get a creamy and homogeneous sauce .
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Store in a tightly sealed jar, covered with a thin layer of olive oil.
Done !
Buon appetito.
