Песто: Песто: Pesto ingredients:

100 100 gr. basil

40 40 gr. coriander

70 70 gr. walnuts

3 3 piece garlic cloves

100 100 ml. olive oil

немного немного tsp. lemon juice

50 50 gr. smoked sulguni

Соус: Соус: Sauce ingredients:

200 200 ml. sour cream

100 100 ml. cream

30 30 gr. mint

step 1

First of all, we should make pesto. Wash and dry greens, use only leafs. Place all the ingredients in a blender and whisk. Use only half of olive oil. Mix pesto and nadughi. Sprinkle with a salt.

step 2

For sauce, mix sour cream, cream, and finely chopped mint leafs. Sprinkle with salt. The most important thing while cooking this dish is to choose good cheese. Usually, people make it of young Imeretian cheese, but I will use sulguni.

step 3

Place a small saucepan on a low heat. Pour it with water, when it will be warm, but before boiling, add slices of sulguni and let cheese melt. After melting, remove it from water, place on a wooden board and roll out. Spread with pesto and nadughi mix. Roll it, cover with a plastic and keep in a fridge for 20 minutes.
