Spelt Pasta Tagliatelle with Wild Garlic Pesto

If you can鈥檛 find any wild garlic then simply use basil in its place.

For the spelt pasta (Makes one serving of pasta):

100g spelt flour
1 large egg
1 tablespoon rapeseed oil

For the pesto:

100g mixed nuts, ground (I used hazelnuts, cashews, walnuts, almonds)
100g parmesans, finely grated
Several large handfuls washed wild garlic leaves
1 large handful flatleaf parsley
100ml rapeseed oil (approx, gauge by eye)
Freshly ground pepper

1: Combine the spelt, flour, egg and oil and mix well with a fork then bring together with your hand (keep one hand clean if you can) and then knead to a soft dough ball. Roll out as thin as possible then cut into strips. Cook in boiling salted water for 2-3 minutes.

2: Whilst the pasta is cooking combine the pesto ingredients inn a food processor and blitz until well mixed.

3: Drain the pasta then add a couple of tablespoons of the pesto and stir well. Serve with a few gratings of parmesan. Put the remaining pesto into a jar, cover with a thin layer of oil and refrigerate.
