A versatile, flavourful vegan pesto from SuperNatural.
This recipe is of course different in flavour to the traditional basil pesto, but I have mimicked some of the typical flavours. Cashew nuts, when blended through food, can have a sort of parmesan flavour and they also give a beautiful creaminess.
Kale and cashew pesto

- 3 cloves garlic
- ½ cup (75 g) unsalted raw cashews
