3.

Add 350-400g of good quality olive oil, and heat on 70 degrees, speed 1 for 7 minutes.

4.

Blend for 30 seconds on speed 7, and pour into a sterilised jar.

5.

Keep in the fridge. You can top up with oil and use over the course of a year – until the shoots are available again next spring!

Tip

I developed this recipe after finding some new season garlic shoots at the Collingwood Children's Farm Market. 

After having a chat to the stall-owner, she let me know that she chops hers up with herbs and blends with oil and salt; and then keep in the fridge.

Use the oil to coat lamb roasts, add to salad dressings and make garlic bread; as well as drizzle on steaks and use in stir-fries – in fact anywhere where oil is required you can use this.

You can use any herb instead of the basil.  Parsley works well, as does corriander.
