- Add the leaves to a food processor and add in the garlic, lemon juice, cheese and pine nuts.
- Start to blend and slowly pour in the olive oil.
- Add the salt and pepper and blend again. Taste to see if you need to add more oil, seasoning or lemon juice.
Store in a clean and sterilised mason jar or container - it should last around two weeks if kept in the fridge.
