#FJ - I gave a healthy twist by adding some strawberry and fresh rose petals puree and it turned out real yummy. I also used low fat yoghurt for the recipe and flavored it with rose water and cardamom powder. This fruit based dessert is an ideal party recipe or can be prepared for any festive occasion. Enjoy it chilled as an after meal dessert or with poori.

Transfer the puree to a pan. Add the sugar & simmer on a low flame till it is reduced & slightly thick. Keep aside to cool.
