🐟Fish🥛Milk🌱Soy🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For dairy-free needs, this dish already fits well as written. For soy-free or wheat-free diets, swap the soy sauce for coconut aminos or a gluten-free tamari, and if fish is avoided, use a firm tofu or chicken alternative instead.
What to serve with it
Serve with a simple citrusy salad or extra steamed greens to echo the bright, savory flavors without adding much heft. A crisp white wine, sparkling water with lemon, or a light broth also fits nicely alongside the fish and cauliflower base.
