Instructions

1
Soak 1 cup raw cashews in enough cold water to cover by 2 inches for 30 minutes. Drain and set aside for the sauce.
2
Peel the boiled, cooled potatoes and grate them on the large holes of a box grater (or pass through a ricer) into a large mixing bowl. Add the finely chopped cashews, cornstarch, garam masala, ground cumin, and 1/2 tsp salt. Mix until a firm, cohesive dough forms — it should hold its shape when pressed.
