Preparation steps

1.

For the potatoes, rinse the potatoes and let cook in water for about 30 minutes.

Peel the potatoes, squeeze through a ricer, add butter and hot milk and mix with a wooden spoon to form a loose puree. Season with salt and nutmeg.

3.

Rinse the wild garlic leaves and shake dry.

Add oil in small quantities until the pesto has the desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper.
