Difficulty:

Easy Pesto with Sweet baby spinach. You don't even need a blender...

Preparation time: 15 mins

Cooking time: 0 mins

Serves: 4

5 tablespoons very finely chopped sweet baby spinach
1 tablespoon finely chopped salted peanuts
6 chopped pepperdews
2 tablespoons chopped pickled Jalepeno peppers, pips and all
Half teaspoon crushed garlic
+- 50 ml olive oil

Chop the spinach leaves as finely as you can as finely as you can.
Place all ingredients in mixing bowl.
Stir and mash a bit, then beat with electric mixer for a few minutes.
Mash for a bit again, check consistency of olive oil, then beat again for another minute.

(I used a electric mixer as my blender is not working, but I found this worked well enough especially as it has a slightly rough texture).
