Hot garlicky, chili and herb kind of pesto but not really pesto

Cooking for one is never much fun but sometimes there's noone else to have dinner with and I refuse to eat ready meals. Tonight is one of those nights. The fridge is full of veggies. I love making things in the oven. But instead of adding chili, garlic and oil to the roasting tray I made this "kind of pesto".

1 whole bulb garlic - yes, that is a lot of garlic!
1 small onion
1 small medium red chili
sea salt
freshly ground pepper
extra virgin olive oil
a handful of basil leaves

Blitz. Done. Use for all sorts of things. Store in a sterilised jar in the fridge.

I drizzled some over a tray of veg and served them with pasta.
