Mango Lassi / Fresh Mango and Yogurt Smoothie

Mango Lassi is a variation to normal lassi and it is made during summer when sweet mangoes are in season. It is sweet and rich and is made with fresh sweet ripe mangoes, yogurt, milk, sugar and cardamom. Delicious way to beat the heat in summer.

 

Ingredients 

  • 1/2 portion of fresh ripe sweet mango chopped roughly ( about 1 cup chopped mangoes)
  • 1/3 Cup thick Chilled plain Yogurt / Curd
  • 1/2 Cup Chilled Milk ( I used full cream milk )
  • 2 big pinches of cardamom powder
  • 2 tablespoon granulated Sugar 

Directions 

1. Wash mango and peel remove skin. Ripe / over ripe mangoes makes the best tasting lassi. Home made curd with full cream milk makes the best lassi

                                 

                                    



2. Chop the peeled mango roughly and add it to a blender

                                   



3. Add granulated sugar and cardamom powder to the mango pieces and blend nicely to a fine puree


                                  

4. Add yogurt and full cream milk and combine everything using a spoon. Then blend the mixture together to a smooth mixture

                                  


5. I like my lassi thick. If you like it thin, you can add more milk and 1 teaspoon of sugar extra                          



6. You can refrigerate the lassi for 30 minutes and serve

7. Before serving , give it a stir using a spoon
