This is a very similar dip to one I’ve already ‘winged’ before by copying the ingredients off a commercial dip container! However this has more sweet chilli sauce and also has lemongrass in it, which I really enjoy in Thai food. This thermomix Thai Chilli Lemongrass Coriander and Cashew Dip is delicious made with my Thai Spice Blend.
This dip has so much flavour you will be hovering over the bowl! I've made this quite a few times and it really is the first to be cleaned out and I've even heard someone ask the host - oh have you got the container for that dip I want to get some for home!!
It still never ceases to amaze me how we can just throw everything in the Thermomix and in literally 2 seconds we have a sensational dip! ☺

Alison Borgas says
Hi there! I love Thai flavours, and am quite keen on replicating this! I did notice chickpeas on the ingredients list, though (of the store bought product)... do you think they would add or detract from the flavours?
thermofun says
Hi Alison I think adding chickpeas would be lovely! I'd love you to let me know how it goes. :)
Naz says
Hi,
Do you use roasted or raw cashews?
thermofun says
Naz, I use unsalted roasted cashews. :) But either would be fine.
Kelli says
Love it! Fed it to 30 teenagers and they couldn't get enough either! Loved it too!
thermofun says
Yes this is a favourite of mine too Kelli :)
Steph says
Thankyou - Loved it.. So YUMMY and easy.
I have made this with macadamias also (instead of cashews) because my husband is allergic to cashews but not other nuts!!
Janette says
