Kale pesto

Ingredients

75g kale (washed/prepped weight)

1 clove garlic

40g whole raw unsalted almonds

5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

45g grated Parmesan

pinch Maldon salt

Directions

1. Bring salted water to the boil in a large saucepan, add the kale & simmer for 30 mins. Drain (you can always reserve that amazing liquid as stock for soups/risottos etc) and squeeze out excess liquid. Allow to cool slightly.
2. In a blender/food processor mix together the almonds, garlic, kale, and olive oil.
3. Add the Parmesan and salt and pulse. Serve mixed through pasta of your choice.
