This Indian dessert is as simple as can be. Its sweet-tart flavor is wonderful when paired with a crisp cookie or fried dough. The end result is supposed to be just a bit tart, but add a bit more honey if desired.
The only time-intensive part of this recipe is the overnight straining of the yogurt, so do plan ahead for that. Shrikhand makes a fresh addition to pancakes, cookies, or other dense baked goods.
INGREDIENTS:
- 6 cups whole milk yogurt
- 1/4 cup honey
- Pinch cardamom
- Pinch nutmeg
- 2 Tbsp. raisins
- 2 Tbsp. chopped nuts (pistachios, almonds, or walnuts)
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Strain plain yogurt overnight.
- Once straining is complete, whisk in honey and spices. Fold in raisins and nuts.
- Cover and transfer to refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.
