Our flight home from Mallorca was delayed by three hours, and we landed in London to thundery skies and drizzly rain. We were starving, but there wasn't time to do much shopping or much cooking. Step forward one of my favourite summer recipes - pasta with pesto.
One summer in our old flat, B grew so many basil plants on the sun-trap balcony that we had fresh pesto pretty much every week, and we got making it down to a fine art. We follow the Jamie Oliver recipe, and it makes a fantastic, vibrant green sauce that is streets better than the oily stuff you can get in jars from the supermarket.
We had ours with fresh spaghetti, and put the leftovers in a jar for another day.
