Creamy Raw Vegan Cashew Dip Recipe

Ingredients :

• 1 cup raw cashews soaked for at least 4 hours
• 1/2 tsp lemon juice
• 1 / 2 tsp fine Celtic sea salt
• One piece of chopped fresh ginger – about 1.5cm piece
• 1 hot green chili – seeds and placental skin removed to get rid of the extreme heat
• 4 Tbsp filtered water, or more for desired consistency
• 2 Tbsp fresh cilantro / coriander

Preparation :

• Put all of the ingredients except the cilantro and water into a food processor (to maintain a chunky consistency and pulse.
• If you add the cilantro into the food processor the mixture will turn green.
• Gradually add in the filtered water to achieve the desired consistency. A thick creamy dip requires only a little water. Pulse and open to scrape the sides of the carriage in order to mix thoroughly. I continually taste as I pulse, to get just the right blend of flavors. I often keep adding salt, ginger and lemon juice until I get it just right !
