Lamb's lettuce in pesto? Sounds strange, but tastes great! Our chef Robert has tried it out and created a ‘lamb's lettuce and hazelnut pesto’ for you. Mmm - what a great combination with fresh spaghettini. To sink your teeth into. Highly recommended!
Recipe for 4 people
Pesto
150 g lamb's lettuce
50 g hazelnuts
2 cloves of garlic
1 dl olive oil
2 ½ tbsp lemon juice
80 g pecorino, grated

Spaghettini (homemade)
150 g durum wheat semolina
150 g white flour
