Tamarind Cashew Sauce (Cheesecake Factory Copycat)

Ever crave a delicious dipping sauce served with Cheesecake Factory’s lettuce wraps or avocado egg rolls? You can enjoy the same sweet and raw goodness at home with this simple recipe! Be warned though – this tamarind cashew dipping sauce is so addictive you’ll want to make it all the time. Guilty!

This homemade version of The Cheesecake Factory’s Tamarind Cashew Dipping Sauce is bursting with warm, gooey flavor. Nuts combine cashews and fresh coriander with sweet and sour notes of tamarind paste and honey. This sauce is so unique, the flavor is tricky to get right, but I think I’ve cracked the code! Try it for yourself, I know you’ll love it as much as we do!

List of ingredients

  • Apple Cider Vinegar Tamarind paste, These two ingredients add a delightful sour punch that cuts through the sweetness and balances the richness of the cashews.
  • Honey: Adds a sticky sweetness that makes the sauce so good!
  • Olive oil: Helps create a smooth texture.
  • Coriander: So the sauce has a herby taste. If you’re not a big cilantro fan, don’t worry! This recipe lacks flavor.
  • Cashew: Add nutty flavor and creamy texture after mixing with other ingredients.
  • Ginger and Garlic: A dynamic duo that brings warmth and depth of flavor to the mix. If possible, I recommend using it fresh instead of dry.
  • Cumin, black pepper and turmeric: These spices take the flavor to the next level.

How to make Tamarind Cashew Dipping Sauce

  1. Hot Ingredients: Combine apple cider vinegar, tamarind paste, honey and olive oil in a small bowl. Heat in microwave for about 20 seconds until smooth.
  2. Add to blender: Pour the vinegar, tamarind and honey mixture into a food processor or blender along with the coriander, cashews, garlic, ginger, cumin, pepper, turmeric and olive oil.
  3. Mixture: Pulse until everything is a smooth, uniform mixture.
  4. Enjoy: Pour the sauce into a bowl and enjoy!

Adjust the taste

If you want the sauce to be more tart, add tamarind paste. Add more honey to sweeten. Always taste as you go and add less to start!
