How We Make It
This is a relatively simple dish that packs a punch with flavour! The pesto is made from fresh kale which is blitzed in a food processor by our Chefs along with olive oil, garlic, cashew nuts, lemon juice, basil and parsley.
We then partially cook our cannolicchi pasta so it still has a bite, to make sure that it remains al dente when reheated at home. Finally, we garnish this dish with sunblush cherry tomatoes which have a delicious sweet flavour. A simple but filling dish that is great served with a sprinkling of parmesan cheese.
