Method

Add the sugar to the blender and grind it to fine powder, keep it aside.

Add the home made yogurt to a wide bowl [make sure the yogurt is cold and thick].

Now it’s time to churn the yogurt/curd, you can whisk it using mathu or wire whisk or hand blender. You have to blend it until the yogurt is smooth.

Whisk really well until the yogurt has smooth texture. Add the ground sugar to the yogurt and whisk well until well combined.

At this stage, add cold milk and whisk more until it turns frothy.

Finally add cardamom powder/elachi powder, and give one final whisk.

Yes, delicious, rich, cool and tempting Sweet Lassi is ready to be enjoyed. Pour it in tall glasses, garnish with either thulasi leaves or with silvered almonds/badam and enjoy.

Suggestions:

Curd, Milk/water should be cold.

I have used mathu, you can as well use hand blender or whisk to beat the yogurt.

This lassi will be rich, thick and creamy, if you want a thinner consistency you can replace milk with water.

I have uses home-made yogurt/curd made with thick milk [full cream milk].

Adjust the sugar level according to your family needs and taste buds.
