Ingredients

13 total
  • 150g unsalted cashew nuts
  • 2 red onions, peeled and halved
  • 1 large cauliflower, broken into florets
  • 300g baby or small carrots, halved
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp coriander seeds
  • 1 tsp cumin seeds
  • 1 tsp yellow mustard seeds
  • 1 garlic bulb, broken into cloves, unpeeled
  • 1 large pinch sea salt flakes
  • 2 tbsp cider vinegar
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 handful flat-leaf parsley, leaves picked, some roughly chopped

Method

5 steps
  1. Step 1

    Put 100g cashews in a bowl. Cover them with boiling water and leave to soak for 1 hr.

  2. Step 2

    Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas 7. Place the onions cut-side down in a large roasting tin. Add the cauliflower florets and carrots, drizzle with the olive oil, season and roast for 20 mins.

  3. Step 3

    Remove from the oven. Toss through the coriander, cumin and mustard seeds, garlic and remaining 50g cashews. Mix well, then cook in the oven for 10-15 mins, until golden and caramelised.

  4. Step 4

    Meanwhile, strain the soaked cashews (you could save the liquid to add to a smoothie) and blitz in a food processor to a fine paste. Add the sea salt, vinegar and vegetable oil; blitz again, gradually pouring in 80ml water while the machine is running, until you have a thick emulsion.

  5. Step 5

    Spread the sauce evenly on a serving platter. Arrange the roasted veggies on top, scatter over the parsley and serve.
