Swaps and substitutions

For a dairy-free version, swap the sour cream topping for a plain unsweetened plant-based yogurt or skip it and add extra lemon for tang. For a nut-free plate, leave out the almonds and use toasted pumpkin or sunflower seeds if seeds are safe for you.

What to serve with it

Serve with a crisp green salad or simple cucumber-tomato side to add freshness alongside the rich, savory grains. Warm flatbread or extra lemon wedges also fit well if you want a little more substance and brightness.
