I made a quick coriander pesto by combining blanched almonds, parmesan, garlic and olive oil with the fresh coriander leaves in a pestle and mortar. It is a great way to get rid of cropped up frustrations, by the way. I simply chopped up the veggies, drizzled it with oil, roasted it in the oven and served it with fresh home made pesto.

It is a great vegetarian recipe and it also scores high points with the banters, because it is low carb and all. Add pieces of grilled chicken and cooked couscous, and you have a meal fit for Kings. Enjoy!
