Ingredients for Shrikhand Recipe
Yogurt 2 kilograms
Saffron (kesar) 7-8 strands
Warm milk 2 tablespoons
Almonds 1/4 cup
Pistachios 1/4 cup
Sugar to taste
Green cardamom powder 1 1/4 teaspoons
Method
Step 1
Hang yogurt in a muslin cloth, in a refrigerator until all the liquid from the yogurt has drained off. (Approximately three hours.) Dissolve saffron in warm milk and set aside. Blanch almonds, cool and cut into slivers.
Step 2
Cut pistachios into slivers and powder sugar. Tie a clean muslin cloth tightly over the mouth of a large clean vessel. The muslin cloth thus acts as a sieve and should not sag in the middle.
Step 3
Use a clean thick string to tie the cloth over the vessel. Transfer the thick yogurt along with the sugar over the muslin cloth, in small quantities.
Step 4
For every cup of thick yogurt, add three fourth cup of sugar. Rub the above mixture firmly over the cloth, till the whole mixture is sieved.
Step 5
Add the dissolved saffron, almonds, pistachios and green cardamom powder to the sieved mixture. Mix well and transfer to a glass bowl and refrigerate till cold.
