Gosh the cashew nut cream looks/sounds fabulous. I wonder what I can use instead of jaggery/palm sugar. Maybe something called 'rapadura' that I can get here in Ireland, a form of unrefined cane sugar.

("Pre" not "re" incarnation, to avoid any suggestion of the standard Indian we-invented everything-first thing.)
