⚠️Allergens:
🥛Milk🌰SesameSwaps and substitutions
For dairy-free needs, swap the yogurt-based element for a plain plant-based yogurt or extra tahini thinned with lemon and water. For sesame-free diets, replace tahini with sunflower seed butter, and for a milder allium-free version skip the shallot and use extra cucumber and herbs.
What to serve with it
Serve with warm pita, toasted flatbread, or a simple grain like couscous to make it more filling. It also works well beside grilled vegetables, olives, or a light soup for a Mediterranean-style spread.
