How to Make Shrikhand at Home

Shrikhand is a classic Maharashtrian dessert made from hung curd, sugar, and cardamom. Here is how to make it at home with our fresh dahi.

Ingredients

• 1 kg fresh thick curd (dahi)
• ½ cup powdered sugar (adjust to taste)
• ½ tsp cardamom powder
• A few strands of saffron (optional)
• Chopped pistachios for garnish

Steps

1. Hang the curd: Tie curd in a muslin cloth and hang for 4–6 hours until thick. The liquid (whey) should drain out.
2. Sweeten: Transfer the thick curd (chakka) to a bowl. Add sugar and mix until smooth.
3. Flavor: Add cardamom and soaked saffron. Mix well.
4. Chill: Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
5. Serve: Garnish with pistachios and enjoy chilled.

Tip: Use our Matka Dahi for an authentic earthy flavour.
