Shrikand



It was hot sunday afternoon and i need something chill to cool me down. Tired of smoothies & homemade juices, i need something different and challenging. How about a dessert a cool one. When i opened my fridge my eyes caught a glimpse of a tub of yogurt and there i go. First thing that comes to my mind is a traditional indian dessert. You could amazed how a simple yogurt can be turned into an awesome dessert to satisfy your sweet tooth and temper the sunny sunday

Shrikand is a famous dessert in the North India but right here in Malaysia, i wonder how many really heard  
of it. No worries dearies, here your chance to try your hand on the ever famous Shrikand. This is a dessert that requires no baking neither cooking. I call Shrikand a bachelor friendly dessert.

1 cup greek yogurt
1 tbsp sugar/honey
5-6 strands saffron
1 cardamom pod-grounded
1 tbsp warm milk
almonds slivers


Methods:

Add saffron into the warm milk and give it a good stir. Set aside

In a bowl or serving cup combine yogurt,sugar/honey and crushed cardamom. Mix well

Add in the saffron mixture to the well combined yogurt

Notes:

Greek yogurt is simply thickened yogurt with very less water content. You can find it easily on the shelves of major hypermaket.
