Sardine Pesto and Pasta - CDKitchen.com

serves/makes:
  
ready in:
  under 30 minutes

ingredients

1/4 cup pine nuts (pignoli)
2 cloves garlic
2 cans sardines
3/4 pound spaghetti or linguine
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, freshly grated if possible
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup raisins
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
Parmesan cheese at the table

directions

In a mortar and pestle (blender or processor) grind the pine nuts and garlic into a smooth paste. Add sardines including the packing oils. Also add grated Parmesan cheese and olive oil and process until smooth. It should have a thick creamy consistency.

Now stir in the raisins and parsley. Serve over hot linguine or spaghetti, cooked until "al dente."

Provide extra Parmesan cheese to be sprinkled on each serving. A green salad with black olives and onion rings is a great go-along. Serve with hot and crunchy garlic or regular Italian bread.
