Steps:
- Making pesto is such an easy thing to do, you'll wonder why you've never gotten into the habit of doing it from scratch before. The quantities I've given you here mean you can utilize whole packets of Parmesan and nuts, and the method is so simple anyone can do it. This is one of those incredible recipes where minimum effort gives you maximum flavour, every time.
- Break the Parmesan into a food processor (discarding the rind). Rip in the leafy basil, discarding only the tougher base of the stalks.
- Peel and add the garlic, and tip in the pine nuts and almonds.
- Finely grate in the lemon zest, squeeze in all the juice, and pour in the oil. Blitz until fairly fine in consistency.
- The fresh pesto will keep well in the fridge for up to 3 days, and it freezes brilliantly. The easiest thing to do is roll the pesto up in greaseproof paper to make a log, then scrunch the ends like a cracker. Pop into the freezer for 2 hours, then, before it gets too hard, remove, unwrap and slice into the appropriate number of portions. Re-shape, re-roll and re-wrap, then pop it back into the freezer - it'll be good for at least 3 months.
- To use from frozen, simply defrost overnight in the fridge, or whack it straight into a pan to melt.

Steps:
- Peel the garlic, then pound in a pestle and mortar with a pinch of sea salt.
- Pick, roughly chop and add the basil leaves, then bash to a paste (or pulse in a food processor).
- Add the pine nuts (very lightly toast first, if you like) to the mixture and pound again, then stir in half the Parmesan.
- Drizzle in some oil - you need just enough to bind the sauce and get it to an oozy consistency.
- Add most of the remaining cheese, then season to perfection with salt and black pepper. Have a taste, and keep adding a bit more cheese or oil until you are happy with the taste and consistency.
- Add a squeeze of lemon juice at the end to give it a little twang, if you like, but it's not essential.

THE BEST BASIL PESTO
Pesto is so versatile, the principle of herbs, nuts and cheese, bolstered by garlic and good extra virgin olive oil, can be taken in so many different ways. This is the classic combo, celebrating basil, pine nuts and Parmesan, but use what you've got in stock.

- To make the pesto, peel and finely chop the garlic, then pick and very finely chop the basil leaves, reserving a few baby leaves for garnish.
- Place the chopped basil into a bowl with the ground almonds, just under half the garlic and 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil. Finely grate in half the cheese, add a squeeze of lemon juice and season to taste with sea salt and black pepper, if needed.
- Bring a pan of salted water to boil over a medium heat, then pick and finely chop the rosemary leaves.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a frying pan over a medium heat, add the remaining garlic and all of the rosemary, then cook for 2 minutes, or until the garlic is lightly golden.
- Turn the heat down to low, then drain and add half the cannellini beans (keep the rest for another day). Halve and add the tomatoes and cook for 8 minutes, or until the tomatoes have broken down and released their juices, stirring occasionally.
- Meanwhile, cook the tagliatelle in the pan of boiling salted water for 6 minutes, or until al dente, which means that it should be soft enough to eat, but still have a bit of bite and firmness to it.
- Meanwhile, trim the beans, then cook with the pasta for the final 4 minutes, adding the spinach for the last 30 seconds. Scoop out a mug of cooking water, then drain the pasta and veg in a colander and return to the pan.
- Divide between your bowls, spooning over the tomatoes and beans, scatter with the reserved basil leaves and add a little drizzle of extra virgin olive oil to each.
