Steps to make Walnut, ricotta and sun-dried tomatoes pesto:
- Add the walnuts to the mixer and mix them alone first for a little bit. Then add the sun-dried tomatoes, the basil, the olive oil and the parmesan. Start mixing and add olive and a tiny bit of water if needed.
- When the mixture is a smooth(ish) consistency remove from the mixer into a bowl and add the ricotta. Mix it together until it's mixed together with the pesto. I don't like to add the ricotta to the mixer directly as the speed of the blade warms the cheese.
- If you are using it with pasta, make the pasta as per usual and drain it al dente. Put the pasta back in the pot and add the pesto and mix together. It doesn't need to be warmed as the pasta is piping hot.
Add the sun-dried tomatoes, lemon juice, crushed red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. With the machine running, gradually add the olive oil, then water in Place the pasta in a large warmed serving bowl. Top with pesto, and toss well. Garnish with grated cheese and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Blend sun-dried tomatoes, garlic cloves and basil leaves in a food processor.
