I tried this recipe and it is wonderful. My husband from Lima Peru loved it. It is very good … and I recommend it to anyone who would like to try Peruvian food. It is similar to a Pesto sauce however it is creamier and “lighter”.

Thank you so much for adding this recipe to this site. My husband is from Lima and I have searched high and lo online to find a recipe for this “green spaghetti”. I have a homegrown basil and will give this a try this weekend!
