Instructions
- 1
Combine the cashews and hot water in a small bowl and soak for 15 minutes, until the cashews are softened. Drain, then transfer to a blender with 1/4 cup fresh water and blend on high until completely smooth and creamy, about 1 minute. Set aside.

Heat the oil in a large skillet or wide saucepan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the cumin seeds and cook for about 30 seconds, until they sputter and turn a shade darker — watch closely, as they can burn quickly.
