While the water heats, combine the cooking oil, almonds, mixed nuts, garlic, and ice cubes in a mortar and pestle. Pound the mixture until it forms a textured, chunky paste.
Add the fresh basil leaves to the mortar and continue to pound gently until incorporated into the pesto, maintaining a slightly coarse texture.
Add salt to the boiling water, then cook the pasta until al dente. Before draining, reserve a small amount of the starchy pasta water.
In a large bowl, toss the cooked pasta with the prepared pesto, adding the reserved pasta water as needed to achieve a creamy consistency.
Grate fresh Romano cheese and Ricotta Salata over the pasta, garnish with a fresh basil leaf, and serve immediately.
