Pesto with Arugula

For the pesto with arugula, carefully wash the spinach, parsley and arugula, shake dry and tear into small pieces.

Peel and crush the garlic.

Mix the spinach, parsley and arugula together with the garlic, grated lemon zest and pine nuts in a mortar.

Mix in the olive oil and continue to mortar until a nice paste forms. Gradually mix in the Parmesan cheese and season the pesto with arugula to taste with salt and pepper.

Preparation Tip:

Pesto with arugula goes very well with pasta, but also tastes great on bruschetta! For the preparation you can of course also use a food processor instead of the mortar.
