Vegetables In A Creamy Guilt Free Sauce

Vegetables In A Creamy Guilt Free Sauce


1. Prepare all the vegetables and add the vegetables, from the carrots through to the broccoli, to a steamer and steam until they are just tender, 6-8 minutes.

2. In the last three minutes, add the zucchini and mushrooms, and for the last minute add the baby spinach leaves.

3. Place the tofu, cornflour and tamari in a blender or food processor, and add any herbs and spices you want to add at this stage (optional). Process while gradually adding the water until the mixture reaches a thick consistency.

4. Transfer the sauce to a saucepan and carefully heat, while stirring, until it comes to the boil. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a little water, until it reaches a consistency you are happy with.

5. Simmer for 1 minute.

6. Combine the sauce with the vegetables, basil and parsley, and serve with a rice or pasta dish.

7. NOTES: Tamari can be used in any recipe instead of stock cubes. It is available in health food stores and larger supermarkets.
