It's so easy to whizz up this delicious pesto — packed with flavour and bursting with goodness from the nutrient-rich kombu seaweed. Huge thanks to The Cornish Seaweed Company for introducing us to this gem of a quick-fix recipe.

Instructions

1 Chop the seaweed into small pieces.

2 Toast the nuts for a few minutes in a dry pan on a low heat.

3 Place all ingredients in a blender or pestle and mortar and blitz or bash until required consistency.

4 Season with black pepper.

5 Get eating! Stir into freshly-cooked pasta, spread onto a crusty baguette or swirl into creamy hummus and get dipping with toasted pitta chips.
