2 Garlic cloves, roughly chopped
Salt and Pepper to taste
2 cups, tightly packed, Parsley leaves, coarsely chopped up extra virgin olive oil, as needed
6 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan
Turn on a food processor and drop in the garlic. When it is chopped and adhering to the sides of the bowl stop the machine and scrape down the bowl. Alternatively, mash with a generous pinch of salt in a mortar and pestle. Add the parsley and mint to the food processor (or to the mortar and pestle) and process until finely chopped or grind to a paste. With the machine running slowly add the olive oil and process until the mixture is smooth (or slowly work into the mixture using a mortar and pestle). Stop the machine, scrape down the sides of the bowl and add the cheese. Pulse to combine. *OPTIONAL ADDITOINS, pine nuts, walnuts, mint – anything you like!
