  • Fry the zucchini slices in a pan with 1 tbsp oil until golden brown.

Tipps

  • With pesto, the exact measurements of the ingredients don't really matter in the end. Whether you use a little more or less of one thing is entirely up to your taste. Or you let your pantry decide ;-). In the end, you want a creamy pesto that's easy to stir into the pasta.
  • The quickest way to make the pesto is with a food processor. First chop the nuts and half of the Parmesan, then add the other ingredients and blend into a creamy pesto. Then gradually add the pasta water.
  • Storage: The pasta keeps in the fridge for 2 to 3 days; only the hazelnut pesto is worth freezing.
