Ingredients

3 - 4 sprigs of fresh cardamom (just the leaves)

3 - 4 sprigs of rocket

1/2 cup of peppers (yellow, red, orange)

50 grams (about) of goat cheese

1 spoonful wine vinegar

15 (about) grams of pine nuts

1/2 cup of Extra virgin olive oil

1 large garlic clove

salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Wash and drain the rocket and cardamom. Combine them in with the pine nuts and some olive oil and pulse a few times in a food processor. Add the peppers, the vinegar, garlic and salt and pepper and pulse a few times more.

Slowly add the remaining olive oil in a constant stream while the food processor is on. Stop to scrape down the sides of the food processor with a rubber spatula. Add the cheese and pulse again until blended. Add a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.

Makes 1 cup.

Serve with pasta, or as a dressing to salads, over baked potatoes, or spread over toasted baguette slices.

Thanks very much chemeow. If you have problems finding fresh cardamon,(as most of the readers of my blog informed me) you can always make it only with the arugula.
