Ingredients
  • 3 cups fresh basil washed and firmly packed
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 tsp coriander seeds
  • 1/2 tsp lemon rind
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 Tbsp ginger grated
  • 1 Tbsp turmeric grated
  • 1/2 cup Cashews
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
Instructions
  1. Add basil and all ingredients except olive oil to a food processor. Add olive oil through the top while still processing. You may need to stop the food processor a few times to scrape down the sides
  2. Once it has blended thoroughly, store in a jar (make sure the jar is filled properly and there are no air pockets) and pour olive oil on top to preserve
  3. It will store in the fridge for about 2 weeks, or you can freeze it and it'll keep for longer
