20 g chopped garlic
250–300 ml olive oil
Salt, pepper, dried chili (to season)
Parmesan cheese (optional)
1000 g smoked or gravad salmon (optional)

Preparation

1. Prepare the Green Victory Mix

Cook the Green Victory Mix according to the package instructions. Divide the prepared mix:

1500 g for the pasta
750 g for the pesto

2. Make the pesto

Blend 750 g of the Green Victory with roasted hazelnuts, parmesan cheese, dried chili, salt, pepper and olive oil until smooth. If you want to keep the dish vegan, omit the parmesan cheese.

3. Cook the pasta

Cook the pasta until the desired texture is reached. Drain well. Keep a small amount of cooking water in the pan, add the pasta and 1500 g Green Victory. Let it simmer for 1–2 minutes, then add a generous spoonful of pesto. Stir to coat and serve immediately in deep plates.

4. Finish & serve

Finish with grated parmesan or a vegan alternative. Optional: top with basil leaves and slices of smoked or gravad salmon.
