Celine says
Can I replace the vegan cream by plant based milk? Thank you!
carlocao says
Celine, you can but the cream won't turn out as creamy. I'd add 2 tsp of cornstarch dissolved in 2 tbsp of plant based milk to the sauce. This would help the consistency. You can also make the cream yourself, just blend 1 handful of cashews with 300 ml (1 1/5 cups) of water until creamy. I hope this helps!
