1/4 cup cashews
1 cup water
4-5 Tbs Lemon Juice (to taste)
1 tsp nutritional yeast powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/8 tsp garlic powder
1/8 tsp salt
1/16 tsp turmeric pinch cayenne (or paprika)
1 Tbs cornstarch
freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
Place cashews and 1/2 cup of the water in a blender; process briefly (until smooth looking); add remainder of water (1/2 cup) and ingredients; process for 30 more seconds. Pour into a saucepan and heat over medium fire, stirring constantly, until thickened (it's okay if it comes to a slow boil - remember, this is mock Hollandaise)!
My mother serves this as a main course over an opened baked potato stuffed with steamed broccoli. To make the potato entree, simply, bake the potato and stuff it with steamed broccoli. To finish, nap the sauce over the top and sprinkle toasted sliced almonds! It makes a super yummy, and super healthy meal...and best of all, it's low-fat and vegan!
