Mint and Basil Pesto

 Mint and Basil Pesto 

 Mint is a medicinal herb used in traditional medicine to treat abdominal pain and chest pain. Although many are used to adding it to hot tea, there is also a wide range of delicious and healthy recipes and drinks to prepare. Personally, I fell in love with this pesto sauce because of the aroma that permeates into the air as soon as I open the jar, which is why I chose to share this simple and wonderful recipe with you.

Ingredients

Basil - 1 1/2 cups 

Mint - 3/4 cup 

Almonds - 1/4 cup (roasted) 

Olive oil - 3 tbsp. 

Lemon zest - 1 tbsp. 

Lemon juice - 2 tbsp. 

Garlic - 1 clove (cut into fours) 

Salt - as needed

Preparations

Lightly roast the almonds and allow them to cool down. Prepare the lemon zest and cut the garlic. Wash the herbs gently under cold water Process all ingredients in a food processor. Turn it gradually until you get a uniform texture. 

Chef's Tip: Store your pesto in a glass jar in the fridge. It will last you about a week. You can also pour some into ice cube trays. It will last 4 months in the freezer.
