Tangy Mango Lassi

Ingredients

• 1 raw mango, peeled, grated
• 2 cups curd
• 1½ tsp cumin seeds
• 1 tsp black salt
• 2 tsp sugar
• 6-8 mint leaves, fresh
• Salt to taste

Method

1. Cook the mango in a pan with 1 cup of water until soft. Allow to cool completely.
2. Blend the cooked mango with curd. Add the cumin seeds, black salt, sugar, and salt. Blend well together. For a thick, milkshake-like texture, allow the drink to be whipped up well, either in the blender or by hand.
3. Pour the lassi into glasses and serve chilled, garnished with hand-torn mint leaves on top.
