Note

For a richer flavor, use full-fat coconut yogurt instead of low-fat.

This sauce can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Stir before serving.

Add a teaspoon of maple syrup or honey (if not strictly vegan) for extra sweetness.

Use fresh lemon juice and zest for the best flavor; bottled juice may lack the necessary brightness.
