Method

In an ideal world you'd make pesto in a pestle and mortar, but let’s be honest, you’ve got better things to do, like pretending how great your life is on Facebook.

[#ifblanch If you can be bothered, blanching #greenlc can help to retain #itstheir vibrant colour for longer, but if you're planning to eat your creation straightaway then screw it.]

Roughly chop the #greenlc#cheeseprep the #cheeselc and add to a food processor[#ifnuts along with the #nutlc]. Puree the ingredients to a smooth paste if that's your thing, or leave it slightly chunky if you want to pretend you've got a touch of class beneath that insipid exterior.

Transfer to a bowl and drizzle in the #oillc.

[#ifextras We don’t want to inadvertently poison you with #extrasthesaurus, so add the #extras incrementally, tasting regularly. Stop when the sauce is seasoned to your liking.]

Stir your pesto through a piping hot bowl of pasta and apply to face.
