Shrikhand is a traditional Maharashtrian Sweet prepared with hung yoghurt. It is a very easy dessert that can be made in no time. It is usually flavoured with saffron and cardamom powder for the plain version.
But I would like to share plum shrikhand that is equally delicious. I used a healthy combination of low fat yoghurt and brown sugar. I flavoured it with rose water along with cardamom powder. It is enjoyed as it is for an after meal dessert or with poori.
