Comment préparer Chilli Tomato Pesto

Roughly chop the tomatoes, chillies (remove seeds for less heat), garlic, and basil leaves.
In a pestle and mortar (or food processor), combine the chopped tomatoes, chillies, garlic, and basil.
Add the Parmesan cheese, pine nuts, and olive oil. If using a food processor, pulse until a coarse paste forms. If using a pestle and mortar, grind and mash until you achieve your desired consistency, adding more olive oil as needed for a smoother texture.
Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more chilli for extra heat or more olive oil for a smoother consistency.
Serve immediately over your favorite pasta, use as a pizza topping, or as a marinade for grilled chicken or fish.
