    Hi, just curious when you put in the cashews please?

      I would personally add them in that last hour when you add the broccoli myself 🙂

    Tried this one on the family tonight and it was a hit. The family scored it 8/10 which means I will be making it again! I did as Pauline suggested, and added the cashews with the veg for the last hour. Served it with rice.

    Hi I have a ready sauce .. So will it work to chuck the meat strips in & the sauce .. Or should I put 1 cup of beef stock in with it .. I will add cashews as I serve to ..
    The sauce is already thick .. Thankyou

      Only just seeing this question sorry! How did you go? I don’t think you should add an extra cup of stock as that will be very liquid. Does the base ask you to add any?

    This was a really nice dish. I used Schnitzel that I sliced as that was what I had. Added a leek and capsicum as well as the carrots at the start. Added cauliflower, broccoli and the cashews with an hour to go along with the cornflour slurry. Mine was cooked in 4 1/2 hours. Will definitely make again.
