🥛MilkSwaps and substitutions
For dairy-free needs, swap the sour cream for a plain unsweetened non-dairy yogurt or a dairy-free sour cream. To avoid nuts, replace the pistachios with toasted sunflower seeds or skip the crunch and add extra herbs instead.
What to serve with it
Serve with a crisp cucumber salad, warm flatbread, or a simple tomato and herb side to brighten the earthy chickpeas. A tangy pickled garnish or extra lemon wedges also works well with the creamy sauce and spiced rice.
