Ingredients

  • 40 g rocket
  • 100 g pistachios, shelled and roughly chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, roughly chopped
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 4 T extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 T sunflower oil
  • 1 T butter

  • 2 T tarragon, roughly chopped
  • 500 g spaghetti, cooked al dente

Method

1. Place the rocket, pistachios, garlic, salt, black pepper and olive oil in a food processor. Pulse until well combined to form a pesto.
