Fairly Traditional Pesto Sauce

Ingredients:
1 cup of fresh basil
2/3 cup of freshly grated Parmesan
2/3 cup of extra-virgin olive oil
½ cup of pine nuts
2 cloves of crushed garlic
salt

Method
Chop the basil, garlic, pine nuts and salt in a food processor until a purée has formed.
Slowly add the olive oil, while the processor is still running and continue to blend for a few seconds.
Switch the machine off and stir in the grated cheese.
The sauce is now ready to serve, store in the refrigerator or freeze.

This stuff is excellent!
