A simple food processor recipe

Do not let your food processor gather dust on the shelf - it is a powerful kitchen appliance that is capable of making nut butters, soups, pesto sauce, home-made ice cream, gazpacho, hummus, just to name a few.

It is one of the best kitchen inventions ever that will make preparations of meals super easy and quick. Some food processors come with a removable slicing disc, dough blade, shredding disc which are useful in preparation of different meals.

Try to make this pesto in your food processor in just a matter of minutes.

Classic Pesto

Pesto sauce can transform any simple dish to make it appetizing. Home-made pesto is much better than buying from a super market because you are guaranteed of the quality of its ingredients. The main ingredients used in pesto include garlic, olive oil, cheese such as parmesan and fresh basil leaves.

It is a very simple recipe which is ideal for busy week nights.

I was surprised by the extreme ease and the minimum effort it takes to make this cake. As Gino D’Acampo says this is the perfect example of how to cook in Italian style: maximum result with the minimum effort.

Pasta with peas….I think after potatoes, peas are the most used “vegetables” ( in truth, peas are a sort of legumes) in the UK. I prefer the petite poise variety and I usually use the frozen ones.

These legumes are tasty, sorry but I don’t like when restaurants present them boiled or steamed without condiment.

To better appreciate this recipe you should use “pasta all’ uovo”, such as tagliolini, lasagnette, strozzapreti, etc …In this case, I used strozzapreti and if you want a vegetarian version you can replace the ham with the green beans cut into small pieces.
