Raw Cauliflower Risotto with Alfredo Sauce

Serves: 2-3 

Prep time: 10 mins

Ingredients:

• 300g cashews, soaked overnight, or for at least 4 hours
• 2 cups filtered water, or enough water to cover the nuts
• 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 1/2 tbsp Himalayan salt
• 1/2 tsp cracked black pepper
• 2 tbsp truffle oil
• 1 whole cauliflower

Method:

1. To make the alfredo sauce, blend all the ingredients apart from the cauliflower in a food processor until smooth. Adjust seasonings to taste.
2. Wash and cut the cauliflower florets into big chunks. Roughly grate the cauliflower so that it resembles rice grains. 
3. Mix the cauliflower ‘rice’ with enough alfredo sauce to create a risotto-like consistency and let stand for a few minutes before serving so that the flavours can develop.
