Mithai Shrikhand

 

               Shrikhand is a traditional Maharashtrian dessert prepared from hung yoghurt and flavored with saffron and cardamom powder.  So here is my version of this amazing chilled dessert prepared with some leftover modak. In this way, you can make good use of them and come up with this amazing fusion type of Shrikhand.



               In this recipe, I made use of  kesar modak. You can use any other leftover sweets. So a great combination of some leftover sweets and yoghurt makes for this yummy Shrikhand. Garnish with a pinch of saffron, some crushed sweets, chopped nuts, dry rose petals, saffron and a sprig of mint and you are ready to savour it. 


             Do try this absolutely simple, easy and a yummy dessert with just two main ingredients - hung yoghurt and few leftover sweets. The end result is this creamy dessert that is best relished, chilled. I have not added any sugar. You may if you wish. I flavored it with cardamom powder and rose water. You can try with any other flavour of your choice. So check out the step by step pictorial recipe to prepare this chilled homemade delicacy in a fusion style.





  • 500 gms. yoghurt
  • 4-5 mango & kesar modak, mashed
  • 1/4 tsp. cardamom powder
  • 1 tsp. rose water
  • a pinch of saffron soaked in 2 tbsp. water / milk
  • some crushed sweets, chopped mixed nuts, saffron, dry rose petals & mint








          Pour the yoghurt in a cheese cloth and place on a strainer. Keep this on a bowl in the refrigerator overnight. The thick hung yoghurt is used for the recipe. 

          In a bowl, whisk together hung yoghurt and the leftover mashed modak. Pass it through a strainer to remove any granules. 

          Now add the cardamom powder, saffron water and rose water. Mix well and refrigerate for some time.

          Serve this amazing Shrikhand, garnished with chopped nuts, dried rose petals, saffron, crushed modak and mint.
