Place almonds, pistachios and icing sugar in a food processor. Process until mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs. Remove from processor and set aside.
In the processor, blend the butter and lemon rind until pale and creamy. Add nut mixture and blend until combined. Add egg and 2 tsp reserved lemon juice and blend until smooth. Add flour and blend until combined.
Tip mixture out onto large piece of glad wrap. Use glad wrap to shape mixture into a log, approximately 3cm in diameter. Refrigerate until firm, approximately 3 hours.
Preheat oven to 160?C. Line a baking tray with non-stick baking paper. Unwrap dough. Cut into 1cm slices. Place on prepared trays and bake for 15-20 mins, until lightly golden. (Cookies will only spread slightly, so they can be relatively close together on the tray).
Cool on a wire rack. Store cookies in an airtight container.
