Shrikhand Poori Sagu

I am posting this recipe after a gap of six months

Last month I prepared the Poori Shrikhand with Sagu on my husband's request.I was successful in preparing the Shrikhand at home.

Ingredients

1/2 liter thick homemade curd
300 grams of
powder sugar
1tbs of cardamom powder
Few strands saffron
Muslin cloth


Procedure

Tie the curd in muslin cloth for around 8 hours. so that it will drain the water from curd. Once it drains water from the curd,remove thick sour cream from cloth .
Add powered sugar and stir it and keep it aside for 15 minutes .
In a small bowl soak the saffron strands in 2 tbs of milk so that it will leave a saffron color .
Add this saffron and cardamom powder to the cream and mix it well .
Chill it in the fridge for an hour and serve with poori.
