Add the mixed vegetables and stir well to coat them in the spices.
In a blender, blend the soaked cashews with 2-3 tablespoons of water to form a smooth paste. Add this to the pan along with the coconut milk and water.

Season with salt, adjusting to taste.
Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve hot with steamed rice or naan.
