Today's pasta is consistent because it has bechamel in addition to that delicious green sauce, the pesto.
Surely you know the Genoese pesto. It is made with basil, cheese, pine nuts, a little garlic, olive oil and salt. The normal thing is to serve it with pasta but it is also very rich with white rice or even with legumes and cooked potatoes.
In this case we are going to put that pesto in our pasta. We will cover it later with a light bechamel that we can prepare in a saucepan, in a frying pan or in a Thermomix.

We put plenty of water in a saucepan and put it on the fire. When the water begins to boil, add the pasta and let it cook for the time indicated on the package.
Let's take advantage of this time to make the bechamel. We put the milk, flour and butter in the Thermomix glass.
We program 8 minutes, 90º, speed 4. Once done, add the salt and nutmeg, mix with a wooden spoon and reserve it inside the glass.
If we do not have the pesto done we can prepare it at the moment. We will need the ingredients that appear in this recipe: Genoese pesto. If we don't have much time, we can prepare it in a blender or in the food processor itself. We will only have to put all the ingredients in the glass and crush them.
Once we have made the three ingredients, it will be time to put them all together.
We put the pasta in a bowl and pour the pesto over it.
We put our pasta with pesto in a bowl and then pour the béchamel.
If we want, we put a little grated cheese on the surface and serve immediately.
