Instructions

  1. Peel and dice the onion and fry together with 1 - 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium to high heat. Peel the garlic clove and add whole to the onions after approx. 5 minutes.
  2. While the onions are slowly frying, cut the avocado in half and remove the stone. Release the pulp with a spoon and place in a blender. Wash and shake the basil dry and add to the blender with the remaining olive oil and the juice of the lime.
  3. When the onions start to turn golden brown, add a dash of honey to the onions and fry until the desired degree of browning. Then let the onions and garlic cool down a bit and put them in the blender together with the parmesan.
  4. Mix the ingredients and season with a little nutmeg, salt and pepper. Correct the consistency with a little olive oil if necessary.
  5. The pesto goes wonderfully with various types of pasta or simply as a delicious dip. It has around 205 Kcal per serving.
