  4. To get pesto, you need to crush the Basil leaves and all the other ingredients in a mixer into a paste. I do not have a photo, because when I did it, I did not know that I would need photos. You can also use ready-made store-bought pesto. So, half of the dough is rolled out in a rectangle 3 mm thick and put half of the pesto, distribute it on the surface, leaving on all sides free edges of about 2 cm. Fold the sides inwards and press down.
