description
It is a pesto with a very delicate and pleasant taste. You can freeze and use as a meal saver when you have little time to cook.
preparation
step 1
Before we start, let's get a food processor, because we will carry out the recipe with its help.
step 2
In a saucepan of salted water, boil the courgettes and the leek. As soon as they are completely cooked let us put them to drain in a strainer while we take care of the rest.
step 3
In the meantime, in the chopper we chop almonds of the size we like best (I left larger pieces because I like the crunchiness they give to the final dish).
step 4
Wash and dry the parsley and place it in the chopper along with all the other ingredients except for the almonds. Let the blades go for a few minutes until you obtain a creamy consistency and only at the end add the almonds. Pesto is ready!
step 5
You can use this sauce to season pasta or to accompany a second course of fish.
