Fruit Shrikhand

My kaki(Aunt) makes yummiest fruit Shrikhand.  This time I tried making it myself, of course after consulting her. One of the good things about this dessert is that it is almost fat-free, and yet there is no compromise with the taste!! Not many desserts fall into that category. We originally had decided to eat it bit-by-bit and to finish it off in 3-4 days, but once we started eating it, it only lasted one evening :).

Ingredients:

3 cups non-fat yogurt ( about 2 cups of hung yogurt)

1/3 cup sugar (add more if needed)

1 1/2 cup mixed fruits ( I used pineapple, mango, apple, grapes. Avoid bananas as   they tend to get black)

1 tsp cardamom powder

7-8 strands of saffron

chopped pistachios and almonds for garnishing 

Method:

• Put paper-towel covered colander in a large bowl and pour yogurt into it. Put this in the fridge overnight so that all the liquid from the yogurt gets drained off.
• Mix together this hung yogurt, sugar, cardamom and saffron and mix really well. Use hand mixie if needed.
• Add all the fruits and mix properly. Garnish with pistachios-almonds and serve cold.

I'd like to send this to Srilekha's  Sweet Event.

Enjoy!!!
