Step 1
Make cashew cream first. Drain the cashews you soaked and add them to a blender. Then add the non-dairy milk, nutmeg, cayenne and a pinch of salt and pepper. Blend, scraping down the sides as needed until the mixture is completely smooth. It may take a few minutes depending on your blender. Set aside.
Step 2
Now, heat the vegan butter on medium high in a large pot. Add the leeks, celery, garlic and mushrooms. Sauté, reducing heat as needed until the mushrooms have released their liquid and then are starting to brown. About 8-10 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Step 3
Next add the wine, bay leaf and thyme. Stir to combine and simmer for 2-3 minutes or until the wine has mostly been absorbed by the veggies.
Step 4
Then, add the potatoes and the vegetable broth. Stir to combine everything. Season with another pinch of salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low and continue to simmer for 10-12 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
Step 5
Pour the cashew cream you made into the pot. Stir to combine.
Step 6
Then add the agave and a squeeze of lemon.
Step 7
Simmer for another 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 8
Remove the bay leaf and thyme springs. Then taste and adjust seasonings.
Step 9
Serve immediately.
