For an enhanced nutty flavor, toast the almonds in a dry pan before chopping. Adjust the amount of cinnamon and garam masala to suit your taste preferences. Consider adding other dried fruits like apricots or raisins for a varied flavor profile. Fresh herbs such as mint or cilantro can be used as a garnish instead of parsley.
