Notes
To make it cheesy, add shredded cheese to the sauce.
Reduce or omit chilli flakes for a milder flavor.
Add chopped spinach or kale for extra nutrients.
Substitute coriander with basil or parsley for a different taste.
Use vegan butter and plant-based milk for a non-dairy version.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheat on stove with a splash of milk.
