Simply slice all you smoked salmon, and then add this with all your other ingredients to a food processor. blend until smooth with only small chunks of smoked salmon. 

Cashew Pesto

This is a delicious substitute for normal pesto, it's also cheaper too as pistachio nuts are really expensive.
You'll need:

- 200g roasted cashew nuts
- Large bunch of basil, 
- 3/4 cup robust olive oil 
- Salt to taste 

Method: 

In a food processor blend together until all ingredients until nuts have been chopped and all basil blended and it resembles normal pesto. Remember not to blend to much, you're not making sauce!
