Ingredients

• 2 cups curd (preferably homemade as store bought one’s turn sour)
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• 1 pinch kesar (soaked in warm milk)
• 1/2 tablespoon elaichi powder
• 1 tablespoon chopped pistachio for garnish

Method

• Hung the curd in a muslin cloth or any cotton dupatta you might be having
• I would suggest you to hung it in the refrigerator as it won’t get sour .
• Leaving it out may make the curd too tangy,especially in hot season.
• So do tie it in the refrigerator with bowl below the hanging curd
• Leave it overnight, as the curd has to be creamy and velvety.
• You need to have patients while making shrikhand.
• After leaving the curd overnight remove it in bowl
• Add in powdered sugar, elaichi powder, kesar or saffron and chopped pistachio
• Mix it well with whisk

• Your Kesar elaichi shrikhand is ready to be served.
• Enjoy them with puris
• You can store them in refrigerator for a week.
