Preparation steps
1.
Rinse and dry the basil, then remove the leaves from the stems. Peel and finely chop the garlic. Finely chop the basil in a blender with the garlic, and pine nuts. Add the cheese, 1 pinch of salt, and 1 pinch of pepper. Gradually mix in the olive oil (Covered with oil, the pesto will keep for a few weeks in the refrigerator).
2.
Cook the spaghetti in boiling salted water with a little olive oil until al dente. Pour into a large colander, and drain thoroughly.
3.
Roll the spaghetti with a large meat fork to form nests. Place the nests on warmed plates, and top with the pesto. Garnish with grated parmesan and basil leaves, and serve.
