Instructions

Step 1

*Note: For the cauliflower, remove the outer leaves, then separate the cauliflower into really large florets/pieces.

Step 2

Next, slice the cauliflower into 1/2" thick pieces — slicing the cauliflower like this is done so that the cauliflower takes up less space in the pot. This means that less stock will be needed, in turn will create a thicker, richer sauce.

Step 3

To make the sauce, heat a medium-large pot over medium-low heat. Once hot, add the onion and sweat for 5 to 10 minutes, or until cooked through and translucent — adding a bit of water (or stock) as needed, to ensure the onions do not take on any color and/or burn.

Step 4

In the meantime, in a high speed blender, add the stock, cashews, turmeric and nutritional yeast and blend until smooth. Depending on how yellow you want the sauce to be, add a bit more turmeric, if desired.
