Whip up this peppery and punchy seasonal pesto in under 10 minutes. Toasted walnuts are used for extra flavour – gently fry them in a dry pan for a few minutes until they become aromatic and are just starting to colour. Pair this simple sauce with gnocchi or pasta for an authentic taste of Italy.

Ingredients
- 70g rocket
- 55g walnuts, toasted for extra flavour
- 40g parmesan, grated
- 1 clove garlic, chopped
- 90ml extra virgin olive oil
- 40ml walnut oil
- 500g gnocchi, to serve (optional)
Method
Step 1
In a blender, whizz together the rocket, walnuts (toasted for extra flavour), parmesan, garlic, olive oil and walnut oil until it combines to form a smooth consistency. Add water to thin as needed, and season to taste.
Step 2
Serve with gnocchi, your choice of pasta, on toast, spooned over a baked sweet potato, or transfer into an airtight container and chill until needed. This will keep for up to five days in the fridge.
