Even reducing the lemon slightly, as other comments suggested, this was too bitter and not that tasty or satisfying. Won’t be making it again.

Amazing - added some chilli flakes to individual servings but otherwise wouldn't change a thing.

Use ground or flaked almonds and grate the lemon zest before hand. That will help it macerate better. A teaspoon of olive oil can also help you get a better consistency.

Really tasty! I love making it. It's fun to make and to eat.

Quick and easy to make, but found the taste a little bitter. I agree that you don't need nearly enough lemon as stated. The dish would also benefit from something a little salty, some olives or perhaps some crisy prosciutto for the meat eaters.
