Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Raw cashews
- 1 medium Carrot (peeled and diced)
- 1 medium Potato (peeled and diced)
- 1 4 cup Nutritional yeast
- 1 cup Unsweetened plant-based milk (e.g., almond or oat)
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground turmeric
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 4 cups Water for boiling
Instructions
Place the raw cashews in a small bowl and cover them with hot water. Let them soak for 10 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
In a medium pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add the diced carrot and potato, and simmer for about 10-12 minutes, or until both are fork-tender. Drain well.
Drain the soaked cashews and add them to a blender or food processor. Add the cooked carrot and potato, nutritional yeast, plant-based milk, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, turmeric, salt, and black pepper.
Blend on high until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy. You may need to scrape down the sides of the blender and blend again. If the sauce is too thick, add additional plant-based milk, one tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is reached.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if necessary. Add more salt, pepper, or lemon juice depending on your preferences.
Serve warm as a dip for chips or veggies, or use as a sauce for pasta, baked potatoes, or over steamed broccoli. Enjoy!
