Vegan Sauce recipe for Coronation Vegetables
5 min
The sauce, although with a coconut twang, tastes just like the sauce used in coronation chicken. The bonus is this is ideal for vegans, and a lot lower in calories. To add an uplift, serve with Yellow chilli Jam. Enjoy!

Ingredients
Method
Add all the ingredients into a pan and place on the stove on a low temperature.
Heat until coconut block has melted and the mix starts to bubble.(stir often to ensure it does not catch)
Add arrowroot mix until a mayonnaise type consistency is obtained. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
We use Aubergine, Onion, Butternut Squash, Courgette and Peppers which has been previously oven roasted with a glug of rapeseed oil and fresh herbs. This works wonderfully as a cold sandwhich filling or a warmed jacket filling.
