Shrikhand (Yogurt-Cheese Cake) Recipe

Ingredients

1. Whole-milk Dahi (Yogurt): 4 Cups
2. Saffron strands: ¼ teaspoon
3. Rose Water: 1 Tablespoon
4. Ground Cardamom: ¼ teaspoon
5. Powdered Sugar: ½ Cup
6. Finely chopped Pistachios: 2 Tablespoon

Method

1. Put a cheese cloth in a colander at least folded three or four times. Put your Yogurt in the cheese cloth to drain. It will take about 12 hours to drain. You might as well put a pan underneath the colander and put everything in your refrigerator to drain over night. You would have drained out about 50% of the moisture.
2. Soak saffron in Rose water about 15 minutes.
3. Transfer the drained yogurt in to mixing ball. Add all the ingredients including saffron rosewater. Beat it into a smooth mixture.
4. Put the mixture in small 4 oz cups. Place the cups in the refrigerator for at least two hour. Serve cold.
