Provided by Mary McCartney

Categories     main-dish

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon pine nuts
Flaky sea salt
14 ounces dried spaghetti
2 cups fresh basil plus a handful of leaves, for garnish
1 small clove garlic, peeled
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 lemon, juiced
Pinch of freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • To toast the pine nuts, tip 1 tablespoon of the nuts into a dry saute pan over medium-high heat and toast, tossing constantly, until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Set aside.
  • Add a generous pinch of flaky sea salt to a large saucepan of boiling water. Add the spaghetti and cook as per packet instructions. It should take about 8 to 10 minutes.
  • For the pesto, put 2 cups basil, the remaining 1/3 cup pine nuts, garlic, extra-virgin olive oil and lemon juice into a food processor. Blitz until everything is well blended.
  • When the pasta is just cooked (al dente) drain it in a colander. Add the pesto to the saucepan then tip the pasta back in. Stir well to make sure every strand of pasta is coated in the pesto.
  • Tip into a large family-style serving dish, garnish with the toasted pine nuts and a few basil leaves.

Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (16 ounce) package spaghetti
4 ounces Pecorino-Romano cheese, cut into cubes

½ cup chopped walnuts
¼ cup lemon juice

Add spinach, basil, walnuts, lemon juice, lemon zest, and salt; process until the mixture comes together into a thick paste. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula.

LEMON VERBANA OR LEMON BALM PESTO



Lemon Verbana or Lemon Balm Pesto image

Light and lemony, this pesto makes a perfect pasta sauce in the spring. Serve on high-protein rotini to create a main dish. Also excellent as a sandwich spread or on crackers as an appetizer. Lemon verbana or lemon balm pesto is more delicate than traditional basil pesto, but makes a lovely seasonal treat. Lemon balm is a perennial herb that is very easy to grow and lovely enough for the front garden. It's an excellent example of an ornamental plant that requires very little care, yet can provide you with free food for years after you plant it. Take cuttings freely; like most herbs, the balm will produce fresh new leaves when pinched back. Let it seed in in the fall, then the next spring pull any unwanted new plants to make a big batch of lemon-balm pesto. Freeze what you don't use within two or three days.

Time 18m

Yield 8 1/4 cup servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 garlic cloves
2 cups lemon balm leaves, tightly packed (or lemon verbana leaves)
1 cup shelled walnuts
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup extra virgin olive oil
6 ounces parmesan cheese, grated
fresh ground black pepper
salt

Steps:

  • Rinse lemon balm well in a bowl of water. Let it soak until needed.
  • Grate parmesan if needed.
  • Peel garlic. Set up your food processor with the cutting blade or use a blender. Turn the machine on and drop the garlic in while the blade is turning. Turn off when garlic is minced, after about 10 seconds.
  • Rinse the lemon balm well and pat dry with towel. Remove leaves and put in food processor or blender. Put walnuts and salt on top of leaves. Process until finely chopped but still a bit rough.
  • With the machine going, slowly pour in olive oil.
  • Stop the machine and add parmesan cheese. Process briefly to mix. Taste. Add salt and pepper as needed.
  • To serve, stir pesto into hot cooked pasta or spread on bread or crackers. Eat warm or at room temperature.
  • Refrigerate or freeze any extra.
  • Enjoy!
