  • 50 g pistachio nuts
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp honey

Notes

  • Swap honey for maple syrup to make this recipe plant-based.
  • This recipe goes really well with fish – but it’s a great side generally.
  • It’s naturally gluten-free and dairy-free. Swap the pistachios for pumpkin seeds to make this recipe nut-free.
