Zatpat srikhand

As a kid, I was not fond of sweets/desserts. I remember most of my birthdays, Mom used to make Shrikhand - the only dessert I loved to eat.
Here in North America, chakka( the main ingredient  in home made Shrikhand) is hardly available, which makes this recipe extra special.
I read this recipe from one of my favorite food blogs One Hot Stove, best part is low fat yogurt make the best shrikhand.

Ingredients:
2 cups low fat yogurt.
1 cup sugar (or adjust as per taste.)
3-4 strands of saffron.
2 T warm milk.

Method:
1.Set the strainer on a large bowl.Line the strainer with muslin cloth or regular kitchen paper sheet.Pour the yogurt on to the strainer.Cover the bowl and leave it in the fridge for 8-12 hours.


2.Take the thick, dense yogurt. Fold 2T sugar at a time and leave for 5-10 minutes.This will mix the sugar evenly in the yogurt.After mixing all the sugar leave aside for 15 minutes.


3.Soak saffron in warm milk.


4. Mix the saffron, cardomom and and chopped almonds in the yogurt mixture.

That's it Shrikhand is ready!!
