Tips & Tricks

  • To achieve a smooth and creamy texture, make sure to strain the yogurt properly to remove excess moisture.
  • Adjust the amount of powdered sugar according to your taste preference and the sweetness of the mangoes.
  • For an extra touch of elegance, garnish the Shrikhand with edible rose petals or sliced almonds.

Serve the Mango Shrikhand chilled in individual bowls or dessert glasses. It can be enjoyed on its own as a refreshing dessert or paired with puris (fried Indian bread) for a traditional combination.

Presentation advice

To enhance the presentation, you can pipe the Mango Shrikhand into serving glasses using a piping bag. Top it with a sprinkle of chopped pistachios and a few strands of saffron for an elegant touch.
