Oh my god, I'm about to eat the whole thing straight out of the thermie - it's soooo good! I didn't have cashews so used a combo of pine nuts, walnuts and macadamias, and didn't have whole chilis so added chili powder. Only needed 75g of oil too! Thanks. Yum, Yum, Yum!
I did 3/4 parsley and 1/4 coriander as I had left over parsley and turned out just great👍
Yum! Super easy. A great dairy free pesto.
So yum, added a green chilli & only need 100g oil if that - so yummy & everyone loves it!
Hello, thank you for the recipe, made this today. The chilli does add a bit of heat, I didn't use apple cider vinegar but added lime zest and juice from one lime and left it thicker with only 100g oil. looking forward to using it this weekend with pork sliders
Love how easy it's to make. Left out the chilli as we don't like eating them and got a very fresh sweet nutty pesto that is real jummy to eat. Loving it, thank you for sharing
A great way to use up the rest of the bunch of coriander that I forgot about in the bottom of the fridge! Quick and easy and tasty. Thank you!
glad you enjoyed yes, great to change things to suit what's in the pantry!
very easy, I made a number of alterations due to lack of pantry ingredients, so I used a few pine nuts and skipped the chiili. It tastes yummy, and the excess has gone into the freezer for 'ron.
