Ingredients
  

For the pesto

  • 1 broccoli
  • 75 g walnuts
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil.
  • Cut the broccoli into florets, and remove the woody end and skin from the stalk and slice it. Boil the broccoli and stalk for 4-5 minutes until just soft. Drain and tip into a blender or food processor.
  • Add the walnuts, garlic, lemon and olive oil to the blender with the broccoli and blitz to a smooth paste.
  • Season generously with salt and pepper, then add a little water, blitz again, and continue adding more water until it reaches a sauce-like consistency.
  • Tip the sauce back into the saucepan, then heat through until piping hot. Serve with pasta, vegetables or any main course dish.
