Cashew Gravy

Description

Caramelized onions and the nutty richness of cashew butter make this creamy gravy a great sauce alternative for vegans, and a must for Rice and Walnut Loaf.

Ingredients

2 small

onions, diced

1⁄2 tsp

salt

3 tbsp

extra-virgin olive oil

5 tbsp

butter or margarine

5 tbsp

unbleached flour

1 tsp

ground black pepper

4 cup

vegetable stock

1⁄2 cup

cashew butter

5 tsp

soy sauce

Instructions

In a small skillet, saute onion with salt in olive oil on low heat until golden brown.

In a 2-quart saucepan over medium heat, melt butter or margarine and stir in flour and pepper with a wire whisk. Stir constantly until foam subsides and flour begins to lightly brown.

While the flour is cooking, bring stock to a boil in a separate pan. Add boiling stock to cooked flour and stir until thickened. Reduce heat to low and cook for a few minutes.

Add onion, cashew butter and soy sauce to sauce and puree in a blender or food processor until smooth.
