Ingredients:

Fresh Yogurt/Curd – 2 Cups
Chopped Mango – 2 Cups
Sugar – 2 tbsp [or to taste]
Rose Water or Kewra Water – 1 tsp [optional]
Fresh Crushed Cardamom – 1/2 tsp
Chopped Pistachio – 2 tsp (for garnishing)
Saffron/Kesar – A Pinch (plus garnishing)

Method:

1. Peel mangoes and chop them.
   In a blender or mixer add mango pieces, sugar and puree.
   3. Now add yoghurt, cardamom powder, saffron and kewra or rose water.
   4. Blend again until smooth or for a minute.
   5. Pour in serving glass or chill and serve with pista and saffron garnish.

Notes

• You can add 1-2 tbsp of fresh cream to the lassi.
• Adding saffron, kewra or rose water is optional, if you don’t have both then just ignore it.
• Use chilled yoghurt and curd instead of adding ice cubes for a thick, creamy lassi.
• You can add 1/2 cup of milk if preferred.
• Use any variety of mango you like.
