Shrikhand

Shrikhand is nothing but the sweetened yogurt, here I have added saffron for little flavoring.
This is perfect for summer and kids will love this creamy sweet treats.

Ingrediants:

·         Hung Curd - 1 cup

·         Cardamom powder - 1/4 tsp or less

·         Sugar / Honey / Or both- 2 tbsp

·         Saffron - few strands

·         Milk - 1 tsp (for dissolving saffron)

·         Pistachios – few chopped for Garnishing

Method:

·         Put the saffron strands in the warm milk for 10 mins for it to get the flavour.

·         Hang the curd in a muslin cloth for 1/2 hr till the whey water is out.

·         Transfer the hung curd into a bowl, Add sugar/Honey, cardamom powder, saffron strands with milk and churn it for 1 minute with a hand blender.

·         Transfer it to serving bowl

Note:

·         Shrikandh tastes good, if the curd is not sour

·         Adjust the sugar according to the sourness of the curd.
