Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Full-fat yogurt (plain, unsweetened)
- 200 ml Full-fat milk
- 100 grams Sweetened condensed milk
- 0.5 teaspoons Cardamom powder
- 10 strands Saffron strands
- 1 medium Chopped banana
- 1 medium Chopped apple
- 100 grams Seedless grapes (cut in halves)
- 100 grams Chopped mango or pineapple (seasonal, optional)
- 10 grams Slivered almonds
- 10 grams Chopped pistachios
- 1 tablespoons Sugar (optional)
- 1 teaspoons Rose water (optional)
Instructions
In a small bowl, soak the saffron strands in 2 tablespoons of warm milk and set aside for 5 minutes to release their color and flavor.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the yogurt until smooth and creamy. Add the remaining milk and sweetened condensed milk, and mix until well combined.
Add the cardamom powder and the saffron-infused milk to the yogurt mixture. Stir gently to ensure an even distribution of the flavors.
Taste the mixture and, if needed, add sugar for additional sweetness. Stir well to dissolve the sugar completely.
Wash, peel (if necessary), and chop the fruits into bite-sized pieces. Ensure you avoid adding fruits like citrus or watermelon as they can curdle the yogurt.
Gently fold the chopped fruits into the yogurt mixture. Mix well to coat the fruits with the creamy base.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the pudding for at least 1 hour to chill and allow the flavors to meld.
Before serving, garnish with slivered almonds, chopped pistachios, and a drizzle of rose water (if using) for an added touch of aroma and flavor.
Serve chilled in small bowls or dessert cups, and enjoy this delightful Fruit Kheer!
