Plums are delicious, juicy and rich in various nutrients like vitamin C, K and A. They can be eaten fresh, added to desserts or used in smoothie, sweets, jams, jellies or chutneys. I wanted to make Plum shrikhand as last week I came across many shrikhand recipes prepared with fruits like Mango shrikhand, Dragon fruit shrikhand, Palm fruit, Kesar shrikhand and many more. I decided to go for Plum shrikhand but it went wrong. I tried it with homemade curd which I usually prefer in all my recipes but I believe homemade curd isn't ok for shrikhand. It didn't came out with a consistency of a hung curd. Then I changed my idea as somehow I just wanted to finish with a recipe and I made this sweet and sour Plum Lassi which came out very nice. This is all about behind the scenes.☺️ Plums used in this recipe are less riped. I preferred peeled plums but can be used even without peeling. Beetroot powder is used for that nice vibrant color. So, try and enjoy this quick, simple and vibrant pink recipe. ☺️
