Ingredients
  

  • 400 gm Fresh curd
  • 1 tbsp Saffron Milk ½ tsp Saffron soaked in warm boiled milk
  • 4 Sweet Mangoes
  • 2 tbsp Powdered sugar
  • Chopped Nuts, Dried Rose Petals, and Saffron Strands for Garnish

Instructions
 

  • To make Mango Shrikhand, first take a large bowl, place a strainer over it, and then place a thin cotton or linen cloth over the filter.
  • Pour 400 gm of Fresh curd over the cloth.
  • Press and squeeze out the excess water from the curd in the bowl.
  • Transfer the grey-colored water to a separate bowl. Keep it aside.
  • Now, again place the strainer over the large bowl. Place the curd along with the cloth over it. Fold the cloth properly.
  • Place a plate over the cloth and some heavy weight over the plate. Refrigerate it for 4 hours so that any leftover water is squeezed out and it doesn’t become sour.
  • After 4 hours, take it out. You can see that the curd has now changed into Hung Curd.
  • Now, transfer it to the bowl. Use a hand whisker and a spoon to beat it until it becomes creamy.
  • Add Saffron Milk. ½ tsp Saffron soaked in warm boiled milk.
  • Beat it again using a spoon to mix it well. Keep it aside.
  • Wash and dry 4 Sweet Mangoes. Cut and chop them into small pieces.
  • Add the chopped mango pieces to a grinder and blend to get a smooth, creamy paste-like texture.
  • Now, pour the mango paste into the bowl containing the Curd mixture. Mix using a whisker to get a smooth and rich Mixture.
  • Add 2 tbsp Powdered sugar. Mix well.
  • Refrigerate the mixture for 3-4 hours.
  • The delicious Mango Shrikhand or Amarakhand is ready now. We will serve it traditionally in a small mud bowl.
  • Garnish with chopped nuts, dried rose petals, and saffron strands. Enjoy.
