Ingredients
- 200 ml Sunflower oil
- 100 ml Unsweetened soy milk
- 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Harissa paste
- 1 teaspoon White vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
Directions
Step 1
In a high-speed blender or food processor, combine soy milk, tomato paste, smoked paprika, ground cumin, harissa paste, white vinegar, garlic powder, salt, sugar, and turmeric powder.
Step 2
Blend the ingredients on low speed for about 10 seconds to ensure they begin to combine.
Step 3
Slowly drizzle in the sunflower oil while continuing to blend. Gradually increasing blender speed from low to high helps to emulsify the sauce, resulting in a creamy texture.
Step 4
Once all the oil has been incorporated, blend for an additional 15 seconds or until the sauce is smooth and thickened.
Step 5
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if necessary (you may want a touch more salt or sugar, depending on your preference).
Step 6
Transfer the Vegan Algerian Sauce to a serving bowl or airtight container. Serve immediately as a dip or spread, or store in the refrigerator for up to a week.
