Basil Oil

2 handfuls of fresh basil leaves
1 small garlic clove, crushed
sea salt
freshly ground black pepper
100-120 ml extra virgin olive oil

Combine the ingredients using a handheld blender and store in a sterilised jar in the fridge.

Lovely on drizzled on tomatoes and mozzarella, steamed veg, steak, fish, stirred through rice or pasta...

Variation:
Use 100-125 g of wild rocket instead.
