Servings: persons

1/4 cup pine nuts
1/4 cup walnuts
1 garlic clove
2 cups fresh basil leaves
salt & fresh ground pepper
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/4 lb fresh pancetta, small pieces
sea salt
1 lb perlini pasta

1
Bring a large pot of water to boil. Meanwhile in a food processor, prepare the pesto sauce.
2
In a food processor, combine the nuts and garlic. Process to chop coarsely. Add the basil and olive oil and process to a coarse paste. Add the cheese and process briefly, just to incorporate it. The pesto should be fairly smooth, but have texture. Season with salt to your desired taste.
3
Put the perlini pasta in a large shallow dish and gently cover the entire pasta with the pesto sauce. Serve immediately on a dinner plate. I recommend a side of my garlic asparagus (look for my recipe under this title). :).

Garnish and add sides to your liking. Enjoy!
