Ingredients
Method
- 75g whole almonds
- Large handful of basil, torn
- 4 chopped garlic cloves
- 300g cherry tomatoes, halved
- 50g pecorino cheese, grated
- 6 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper
- 500g linguine, cooked, to serve
- Blanch the almonds in boiling water for a few minutes, then slip off the skins. Toast the nuts in a dry pan until a light golden colour, then pulse in a food processor until they look like breadcrumbs. Add the basil and garlic, and pulse some more to combine.
- Add the almond mixture to a bowl, and mix in the tomatoes, pecorino, and oil. Season well, then stir into the hot cooked pasta, along with a splash more oil, and more cheese to taste.
