Who does not love Italian cuisine? I prefer Pasta to Pizza anyday. I had a very good Italian friend in Nigeria, who taught me the basics of the Pasta sauce. Later I started experimenting on my own and always tried making a hassle free and healthy Pasta. I prefer making the sauce than the readymade one.
Pesto is my all time favourite. It is full of flavour and refreshing.
One and half cups of boiled wheat Penne Pasta
15 to 20 fresh Basil leaves
Two tbsp of grated Parmesan Cheese
A tbsp of Walnuts
Three tbsp of Olive Oil
Salt to taste
Take a pestle and throw in the Basil leaves, Walnuts and grated Parmesan Cheese and grind well. Gradually add in two tbsp of Olive oil while grinding.
Take a pan and add the remaining olive oil and throw in the boiled pasta along with the Pesto paste. Saute for two minutes or so and add salt to taste.
Garnish with little grated parmesan cheese and a shredded leaf of Basil and serve hot.
Note: You can use white Pasta as well
