Ingredients

▢ 1 cup Mango pulp or sweet Mango slices
▢ 1 cup Yogurt
▢ 1/2 cup Milk cold, adjust for preferred consistency
▢ 2 tbsp Sugar adjust to taste
▢ 1/2 tsp Cardamom Powder optional
▢ Pinch saffron strands optional
▢ 2 cubes Ice optional

Method

Prepare the Cardamom Powder

To prepare the cardamom powder, crush the cardamoms in a mortar and pestle and separate the husk.
TIP: Rather than discard the husks, you can add them to Masala Chai.

Prepare the Saffron

Soak the saffron strands in a tablespoon of warm water or milk and let it stand for at least 5 minutes to let the flavors infuse into the water.

Prepare the Lassi

Put the yogurt, mango pulp, sugar, cardamom powder, saffron and ice cubes into a blender.
Blend into a smooth consistency.
Taste and adjust:
if you'd like it sweeter → add a bit more sugar
if you'd like it thinner → add more milk or water
Enjoy the mango lassi chilled.
