Silver Spoon Basil Pesto

I made this for the first time earlier this week. All you need is a food processor (mine's a handheld one).

For a few seconds, process together:
250 g basil leaves (stalks removed)
100ml extra virgin olive oil
a pinch of salt
40 g pine nuts (optional)

Combine with 25g grated parmesan and 25g grated pecorino cheese and process again for a few seconds. (I only used parmesan though.)

Stir into warm pasta, and eat!
