1. blend the water, cashews and coconut with a very high speed blender for about 20 seconds
2. melt the oil and butter in an enamel pan,
3. add salt & pepper
4. add the nut milk to the pan (although don’t strain the fibres, you need those in the pan instead of the usual flour)
5. gently bring to the boil and it’ll start to thicken
6. add a dash of hot sauce as preferred
7. add the grated cheese and fold in.
8. pour over whatever cauliflour cheese thing you might do (ie caramalised onions, lightly fried capsicum, sliced and fried cauliflower, wilted baby spinach).
