Ingredients
  

  • 800 g potatoes
  • 400-500 g seasonal veggies for example 250 g brussels sprouts and 200 g carrots
  • 1 big onion 120 g
  • 0,8 l water
  • 1 Tsp salt

For the cashew sauce

  • 130 g cashews let soak in cold water for 1h or 10 min in boiling water
  • 1 dl cooking water
  • 3 dl soy drink alternatively almond or oat drink
  • 1/2 Tsp vegetable broth powder
  • 2 Tsp potato spices caraway seed, turmeric, ginger, onion, salt...
  • 1/2 Tsp nutmeg
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 2-3 Tbsp yeast flakes
  • salt
  • pepper

Instructions
 

  • If the cashews aren't soaked yet, put those first in a bowl and coat them with water.
  • Peel the potatoes, wash the carrots thoroughly and slice both. This is achieved very easily with the rasp attachment/ vegetable slicer. Alternatively, cut the carrots and potatoes into thin slices (about 3 mm) manually. (Moulinex i-Companion xl settings: rasp attachment for the thicker slices, level 10)
  • Preheat the oven to 180°C.
  • Pre-cook the potato and carrot slices aswell as the onion and brussels sprouts in the Mouli-pot using 0,8 l of water and 1 Tsp of salt. (Moulinex i-Companion xl settings: without knife, 130°C, 10 min)
  • After 10 mins, pour away the water, leaving 1 dl for the sauce. Place the pre-cooked vegetables into a casserole form.
  • Blend all the ingredients for the cashew sauce in the Mouli-pot. (Moulinex i-Companion xl settings: knead- and grinding knife, level 12, 1 min 30 secs)
  • Pour the sauce over the veggies and the potatoes in the casserole form and put it in the oven for 20-25 mins.

Notes

Don't waste tip: Instead of cooking water, you can also use the soaking water for the cashew sauce.
The recipe is meant for a big casserole form and thus a lot of hungry mouths. It may be useful to only use half of the suggested amounts for the ingredients. Or, you could also use it as a meal prep and eat the leftovers throughout the next two days.
