Happy 9th Birthday Cookpad India!
Shrikhand is a famous Dessert in India and there is no one who will dislike it. Iam sure about that. It's made on Festivals as well as many important occasions in many a households.
And there are umpteen variations of this creamy Dessert. In this particular one, iam using pureed Persimmons.
Nothing fancy needed at all. Just a few simple ingredients and you are all ready to enjoy it.
Creamy and melt in mouth Persimmon Shrikhand is all yours. The best part about this is that you need not add only Sugar to it. One can add Honey as well. Or even Jaggery for a lovely change. I have used Powdered Sugar in this variation along with the pureed persimmons. A creamy and a luscious fruity Dessert to enjoy on special occasions or even as an aftermeal Dessert at Weekend Dinner. This one is absolutely perfect.

Enjoy Cooking with Zeen!

Steps

No Cook Recipe

1

Tie up the thick homemade curd in a clean cotton cloth or a cheesecloth placed in a strainer with a bowl underneath it to collect the whey. Refrigerate it for a day.
2

Cut persimmons into pieces. Remove the skin and the seeds if any. Blend into a puree adding sugar. Set aside until use. Keep refrigerated.
3

After the strained curd or the shrikhand is super chilled, mix in all the ingredients in a bowl. Adjust sugar if needed. Also top with slivered dry fruits and nuts of choice or as it is.
4

Don't forget to add a pinch of cardamom powder for the authentic taste and flavour. Serve it super chilled. Yum! Enjoy!

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
