Essential kit
You will need: a high-speed blender for the dressing and a spiraliser or mandoline.
Method
To make the dressing,mix all the ingredients together in a saucepan and simmer over a medium heat for 10 minutes.This will soften the cashews.Transfer the mixture to a blender and blitz until super-smooth. Set aside.
Push the courgettes through a spiraliser, then push the sweet potatoes through the spiraliser.You can use the ‘teeth’ setting on the mandoline if you don’t have a spiraliser. Slice the cabbage using the flat blade of a mandoline or chop it very thinly with a knife.
Mix all the ingredients, except for the beetroot, together in a large bowl.
To finish, push the beetroot through the spiraliser – but keep it separate until you are ready to serve, otherwise the beetroot’s colour will bleed into everything else.When ready to serve, place the salad in a bowl, drizzle the dressing over and toss it well. Garnish with the roasted cashews.
