Coriander Cashew Salsa Food

CAULIFLOWER IN CORIANDER CASHEW SAUCE

Steps:

• Grind the cashews with the sesame seeds in a food processor. Add in the tomatoes,cilantro, lime juice, coriander, garlic,turmeric, salt, sucanat, and cayenne. Blend, then add in the stock and blend until fairly smooth.
• Put both the puree and the cauliflower in a large sized saute pan and bring to a simmer.
• Reduce the heat to medium low, cover, and simmer for about 10 minutes. If needed at this pont, add in another 2 tablespoons of stock (or water) to prevent curry from sticking.
• Keep cooking for another 5 minutes, or until the cauliflower is done to your liking, It'll depend on how small you chopped it in the first place, I like mine in pretty good sized pieces.
• Add in the peas, and cook to tender. I prefer peas with the vibrant color still, so I would just barely thaw them in the cauliflower/cashew sauce.
• If you use frozen peas with ice crystals on them, rinse the ice off in a strainer before adding to prevent the ice from diluting the dish.

CURRIED CARROT SOUP WITH CASHEW & CORIANDER SALSA

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a pan. Add the seeds and cardamom, and cook until they start to sizzle. Tip in the onion and carrot, and fry for a few mins until colouring and fragrant, then add the tomatoes, ginger, chilli, spices and 2 tsp salt, and cook for another 8-10 mins, stirring occasionally.
• Add the stock, bring to the boil, then simmer for 40 mins until the carrots are really tender. Leave to cool slightly, then blend to a smooth soup. Add the lemon juice and some seasoning to taste. Return to the pan, add the milk and warm through. Serve topped with our cashew & coriander salsa and spring onion.
