Although I didn't have all of the listed ingredients, it turned out quite delicious. Simon liked it because it was fairly mild (which may be because our basil has blossomed a little and lost some of its flavor). The below is my slightly modified recipe from allrecipes.com.
1 c fresh basil packed
1 large garlic clove
1/4 c grated parm (I freshly grated this from a block)
3 T olive oil
1 t lemon juice (addition to recipe)
pinch of salt (addition to recipe)
1 T pine nuts (didn't use)
3 T chopped fresh parsley (didn't use)
Combine basil, garlic, Parmesan cheese, olive oil, and nuts in the bowl of a food processor or blender. Blend to a smooth paste. Add parsley if desired.
