Инструкции
- If you have a warm-house cucumber, simply wash & dry it. If you do not, remove strips of peel, lengthwise, leaving thin strips of peel in place.
- The cucumber will look white with thin green stripes. Cut the cucumber in half, lengthwise. With an apple corer or possibly tsp., remove the seeds by cutting a channel in the cucumber lengthwise down the center of both halves, three quarters of an inch wide and equally deep. Throw away seeds.
- Crush the garlic. Pulverize the pine nuts in a blender, mini-food processor, or possibly motar and pestle. In a small bowl, mix the garlic, pine nuts, basil leaves, and salt.
- Mash the avocado with a fork and pass through a sieve to pur e. Add in the lemon juice and garlic-pine nut paste and mix well.
- Fill the channels proportionately with the pesto. Garnish with olive slices and a single line of pimentos running down the center of each channel.
- Chill, cut into 1/3-inch pcs, and serve.
