- ½ cup / 125ml water if needed
Directions
- Drain and rinse the cashews.
- Put all ingredients, except water, in a high-speed blender or food processor and blend, adding water one tablespoon at a time until the desired consistency is reached. If you want a thick cream, use less water, for a thinner sauce, use more.
