How do you make the Indian lassi drink?

Question

I think it contains yogurt.

Answer 1

MY PERSONAL FAVS:

Mango Lassi

1 cup plain yogurt
1/2 cup mango pulp (fresh or canned)
1 cup crushed ice
3 table spoons sugar / Use sugar substitute if desired

Blend all of the above. Add a little water if the consistency is too thick. Keep refrigerated.
Serve chilled. Makes 4 servings.



Dry Roasting : This term is used to describe the process of heating spices on medium high heat in a shallow frying pan without any oil. This dry sautéing is done until the natural oils in the spices start emitting their natural aroma and the spice is lightly toasted. Individual spices are lightly toasted this way before they are ground so as to extract the maximum flavor from the spice.

This process works very well to rejuvenate the old spices sitting in your cupboards. Dry roasting them will bring out their flavors.


Pineapple Lassi

1 cup ripe, fresh pineapple (peeled and diced)
125 ml/1/2 cup plain, natural yoghurt
125 ml/1/2 cup water
2 tbsp sugar
cup ice cubes

Place all ingredients in the jug of an electric blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Pour into chilled glasses and serve immediately.

Answer 2

Lassi is a South Indian Drink.

Recipe as follows :-

Ingredients
1/2 cup plain Yoghurt
1 1/4 cup cold Water
1/2 tsp ground roasted Cumin seed
1/4 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp dried Mint
Mixing Instruction
Blend in a blender for 3 seconds. Lassi is one of the easiest things to make, and there are many ways of making it. Basically, it is buttermilk (yoghurt whisked with water), and you can choose almost any consistency that you like, from the thinnest to the thickest. Serve cold.

If you don't like the cumin taste, you can add some of your favourite fruit - it's best just to add one type of fruit. Add a slice of mango instead of the cumin - u get mango lassi.
Enjoy your drink

Answer 5

yes, ur right. it contains curds/ yoghurt.
one needs to churn the thich curds well, so that the micelles are homogeneous. an electric beater would be of help. Voila, vigorous churning of curds is all that is required. one can spice it up with condiments if required
