Ingredients

  • 55 g fresh mint
  • 55 g roasted almonds
  • 25 g parmesan cheese
  • 3 tsp Traditional Beechworth Honey

  • 1 tsp lemon rind (finely chopped)

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  • Place the mint leaves in a food processor with the almonds, honey, parmesan, garlic, lemon juice and zest, salt and pepper.
