Ingredients
- 10 cardamom pods
- 400g pistachio nut kernals
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- ½ tsp sea salt flakes
- 2-3 tsp groundnut oil
Method
Remove the seeds from the cardamom pods and finely crush them in a pestle and mortar.
Tip the nuts into a food processor, add the crushed cardamom, maple syrup and salt. Blend for 7-8 mins, until you’re left with a smooth nut butter, to loosen the consistency, add a drizzle of oil and blend again.
