Notes
- Ingredients amounts: This is the sort of recipe where you don't have to stick to the exact amounts stated in the recipe. Feel free to experiment with the amounts to make it more or less creamy or lemony.
- Variations: Feel free to add half a teaspoon or more of ground cumin, a pinch of chili flakes or red pepper flakes, or half a clove of raw garlic to add more depth of flavor. Consider scattering fresh herbs (mint goes really well) over the top before serving, or go with toasted seeds, pine nuts or dukkah.
- Storage: This will keep well in the fridge in an airtight container for 3 to 4 days. It will also freeze well for up to 3 months.
