Preparing In The Kitchen
For the pesto cream, in a small pan, roast the pine nuts without oil. Allow to cool and chop into small pieces. Peel the garlic and chop coarsely. Wash the basil, shake dry and chop as well.
Combine all ingredients in a food processor or blender and blend until mostly smooth. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
Peel and finely chop the shallots. In a medium bowl, mix all ingredients together. Shape the mixture into 4 patties and in each patty in the middle make a small dimple, to avoid shrinking.
Place the grilling pan on the medium-high heat. Drizzle in olive oil and once oil is warmed up add patties, grill them for 4-5 minutes (depends on thickness and your preferences) and turning them around until colored on all sides.
In the meantime, wash the tomato and cut into slices. Wash the rucola and shake dry. Grate the parmesan cheese.
To serve, add the rucola and tomato on the bottom half. Spread with the pesto crème and top with the beef patty. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and top with upper bun.
