  • 2Combine the onion, garlic, ginger, and cashews in a blender or food processor and pulse until the mixture forms a paste.
  • 3Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • 4Heat 1 tablespoon of canola oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. Stir in the prepared paste; cook and stir for a minute or two. Add the cayenne pepper, turmeric, cumin, coriander, 1 teaspoon salt, and sugar. Cook and stir for an additional five minutes. Stir in the chopped tomato and vegetable broth.
