STEPS
INGREDIENTS
Soak cashews 2-4 hours or overnight. If you can't wait, like me, boil them.
Boil for 15 minutes.
Strain and set aside.
Dice onion.
Dice garlic.
Make broth. If you use this OMIT the 1/2 tsp salt later in the recipe.
Vegetable Broth
Shells
Boil shells while preparing other ingredients.
Roast pepper on direct stovetop on low heat, turning every 2 minutes until skin is bubbly.
Like so.
Add to sauce pot.
Stir in onions for 2 minutes then garlic for 1 minute.
Peel char off of pepper.
Nooch and seasonings.
Add all ingredients (except shells) to blender.
Then broth.
Blend blend blend.
Return to saucepan and cook 10-15 minutes until sauce thickens.
I reserved a little sauce for chips later.
Add shells to sauce.
VoilĂ !
If I had a Ninja or Vitamix the consistency would be much more smooth. Still delicious!
