Preparation
Step 1
Place the cashews in a medium bowl. Cover with water from a freshly boiled kettle and set aside to soak for at least five minutes.
Step 2
Drain the cashews, reserving the water, and add to a blender with the lemon juice, parsley, and dill. Blend until smooth, stopping to scrape the sides of the blender and adding 1-2 tablespoons of the soaking liquid to achieve a creamy consistency.
Step 3
Slice the shallot into very thin rounds. Heat the oil in a small saucepan. Once hot, add the shallot and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, 5-10 minutes. At this point be quick as they can suddenly burn, scoop out with a slotted spoon onto a piece of kitchen paper. Season with a pinch of salt.
Step 4
Spoon the cashew dip into a bowl and top with the crispy shallots, parsley, and dill. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with flaky sea salt and several grinds of black pepper.
