     Title: Pesto Beans
Categories: Beans, Nuts. veget, Cheese, Herbs
     Yield: 4 servings

     8 tb Olive oil
   1/4 c  Pine nuts or sliced almonds
   1/2 ts Ground turmeric
          Salt & pepper
     3 lg Shallots, sliced thin
          - (about 2 cups)
     5 cl Garlic; sliced thin
    31 oz (2 cans) cannellini beans or
          - other creamy white beans;
          - drained
     1 c  Vegetable or chicken stock
     1 c  Fine grated Parmesan (4 oz);
          - plus more to serve
 1 1/2 c  Tightly packed basil leaves;
          - preferably Genovese
     1    Lemon, cut into wedges, to
          - serve

 Heat 6 tablespoons of the olive oil over medium-low in a
 12" skillet or small Dutch oven. Add the pine nuts and,
 when the oil starts sizzling, stir occasionally until
 golden brown, about 5 minutes; turn off heat. Stir in
 the turmeric and season lightly with salt and pepper.
 Transfer to a small serving bowl.

 Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil over
 medium-high in the same skillet. When warm, add the
 shallots and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring until just
 softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in the garlic, and when
 sizzling (about 1 minute), stir in the beans and stock.
 Bring to a simmer then turn heat down to low.

 In a few additions, sprinkle in the cheese, stirring
 vigorously to combine. When the cheese has melted into
 the broth and the mixture looks creamy, season to taste
 with salt and then turn off the heat. While the beans
 are still hot, tear the basil leaves (or roughly chop,
 if you prefer) and stir into the beans.

 Serve hot, in bowls or on plates, drizzled with the
 sizzled nut oil, a squeeze of lemon juice and more black
 pepper and grated Parmesan, if desired.
