Tamarind Cashew Sauce (Dip or Sauce...lots of Variations) image

I've made it as a sauce for everything from fresh veggies, fresh fruit (especially apples), to lettuce wraps. Also makes great sauce for main dish of meat, chicken or seafood. I've also made a great pita sandwich using the sauce with chicken and apples! Inspired by Cheesecake Factory's dipping sauce! Takes about 15-20 mins to prepare depending on kitchen efficiency, but allow a minimum of 30 mins to cool and set.

I'm not usually a fan of tamarind sauce, but this one is really good. It's not too sour and the cashew nuts add a nice creamy texture.
