Preparation
Combine ingredients for batter in a large bowl; if too thick, add extra liquid. Pour in cauliflower and toss. Transfer to parchment-lined baking sheets, letting excess batter drip off, and bake at 400°F for 30 minutes without overcrowding. Rinse and dry the bowl, and set aside.
Purée sauce ingredients in a blender until smooth. Adjust seasoning as desired. Transfer to a saucepan and simmer until thickened.
Steam or sauté the vegetables for 2-3 minutes until tender.
Remove cauliflower from oven and place in a large bowl. Pour sauce over and toss to coat. Gently fold in the vegetables, add cashews, and serve.
