WALNUT AND PARSLEY PESTO
I hope this walnut and parsley version serves as a reminder that 'pesto' is not a recipe, but a technique. The buttery walnuts temper the fire of the mashed garlic and pair beautifully with the aromatic, bittersweet parsley. Use on toasted bread, pizza or pasta, or on roasted chicken--it's that versatile!

Steps:
- Place garlic and salt in a mortar; smash and mash with the pestle until it becomes a paste, 5 to 8 minutes. Add walnuts; mash walnuts into a paste until you reach your desired texture (coarse or smoother), another 5 to 8 minutes. Add parsley and mash to break up and blend with the walnut/garlic mixture, about 4 minutes. Add lemon juice and olive oil; stir, mash, and emulsify liquids into the mixture until it becomes very thick and well blended, 8 to 10 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings. If mixture seems too thick, whisk in a tablespoon of water, or as needed.
- Spread on bread, use on pizza or pasta, or on roasted chicken. The taste is just like garlic butter, so use it as such.

- Preheat the oven to 180C / 350F and line a large baking sheet with non-stick baking paper or foil. Alternatively, just roast directly onto the sheet.
- Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes, and then allow them to dry. Cut them into roughly similar sized wedges and toss in a large bowl with a large glug of olive oil. Spread the wedges out over the baking sheet and season with salt & pepper. Bake for 1 hour or a little longer if they are very thick.
- To make the parsley and walnut pesto, crush the garlic and combine with the lemon. Either do this separately or bash them both in a pestle and mortar. Allow this to stand to infuse for about 20 minutes. Alternatively, if you like raw garlic, simply add the crushed garlic and lemon juice to the pesto.
- In a bowl of a small food processor or blender add all the ingredients and blend until smooth. Check the seasoning and add more salt and pepper as required.
