This glorious green mixture is rich with plant-based omega 3 oils (hence the name) and extremely delicious to boot. In this case I’ve doubled up the nuts/seeds, and the greens, and the oils, to make it a real multi-plant affair – a 10-planter no less. Serves 4 with pasta, 6-8 as a swirl or dressing for a soup or stew

Uh-oh! We're unable to calculate nutrition for this recipe because some ingredients aren't recognized.

Step 1

If you’ve got time, toast the nuts and seeds in a dry frying pan over a medium heat for a few minutes to really boost their flavour and aroma. Leave to cool slightly.

Step 2

You can make this by hand, chopping everything as I have in the video, which gives you a chance to choose the texture and keep everything a bit more coarse.

Step 3

Chop the nuts and seeds first, to coarse crumbs, then the herbs and garlic, until they are all roughly chopped, then combine both together and chop some more.

Step 4

When you have the texture you like, transfer to a bowl, stir in the oil/s, salt, pepper and a squeeze of lemon juice to taste, plus the zest.
