Ingredients

1 cup raw cashews- soaked in water overnight

2 cups fresh water

3 dates

4 Tbsp mild Harissa Paste - the brand I prefer is Mina, for more heat purchase the spicy version

3 garlic cloves, chopped

Instructions

1. Soak cashews in water overnight, drain.

2. Add soaked cashews, fresh water, dates, Harissa paste and garlic to a high speed blender and blend until ingredients are smooth and creamy.

3. Serve cold or heat it up in the microwave for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Heating will give you a thicker sauce.

4. Refrigerate for up to one week.

Yields 2 1/2 cups

Note: Serve over roasted potatoes, tossed with cooked cauliflower, drizzled on steamed broccoli or Tofu Scramble with Plant-Based Breakfast Sausage.
