Shrikhand Tarts |
| Ingredients (Filling) |
|
|
2 Containers (250g) of Saffron Cardamom Shrikhand |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
| Ingredients (For the pastry) |
|
|
150g Plain flour |
| 2 Tbsps. icing sugar |
| 75g Cold unsalted butter (cubes) |
| 2-3 Tbsps. iced water |
| Butter for greasing |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
| Method |
To make the pastry cases, put the flour, icing sugar and butter in a food processor and blitz until the consistency is like breadcrumbs. Pour in the water while the processor is on until balls of dough form(don’t over process). Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it lightly into a ball. Wrap it in Clingfilm and pop it in the fridge for at least half an hour.
Put the oven to 180C at this point.
Grease each tart tin with the extra butter - around the sides and the bases – and set aside.
Take the pastry out of the fridge and divide it into 4 equal sized balls. Roll each ball out until it’s a few millimeters thick and then line each tart tin. Pop these in the freezer for 10 minutes.
Take them out of the freezer, line them with greaseproof paper and baking beans and bake them for 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes, take the paper and baking beans off and then bake them again until they are golden brown – another 5-8 minutes. Leave them to cool in their cases and then on a wire rack.
Mix Shrikhand with chopped pistachios and leave to cool in the fridge until you’re ready to serve.
Compile the tarts by simply spooning the Shrikhand into the pastry cases and sprinkling pomegranate and more chopped pistachios on top. |

Shrikhand Berry Trifle |
A fool is a traditional English dessert and is open to tons of variation. Try any fruit you have handy, berries and stone fruits are great, or switch to all cream or Shrikhand. If your kids are fruit averse, this can be a great way to make it fun. |
| Ingredients |
|
|
1/2 Cup plain Shrikhand |
| 1 Cup raspberries, plus more for garnish |
| 1/2 Cup heavy cream |
| 2 Tablespoons honey |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
| Method |
In your food processor or blender, puree the raspberries. Pour into a small fine mesh strainer, or cheesecloth, set over a bowl and strain out the seeds.
In a large bowl, whip the cream to stiff peaks, add the honey, and then gradually add in 2 tablespoons of Shrikhand at a time. When the mixture is nice and thick and forms stiff peaks, fold in the raspberry puree. Spoon into a large glass or ice cream dish, and mix whole raspberries throughout. Cover and chill for at least an hour, or overnight. Serve and enjoy! |
Peaches and Cream Popsicles (makes 10) |
Summer fruits are so sweet and delicious that they can carry a dessert by themselves without much sugar. These peaches and cream ice pops, for example, are delicious and refreshing treat for a hot day. Each pop is sweetened by just by a bit of sugar already there in Shrikhand–as little as a quarter tablespoon. The peaches and banana do the rest of the work.
The banana also helps give these pops a little bit of structure. As with all frozen pops, the longer you can give them to set up, the better. We like to plan on doing them overnight. It can be hard to wait, but it’s worth it! |
| Ingredients |
|
|
1 1/2 Cups plain / any fruit flavoured Shrikhand |
| 5 Ripe peaches |
| 2 Ripe bananas |
| 1 Cup water |
| 2 Tablespoons fresh squeezed lime juice |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
| Method |
Combine all of the ingredients in a blender. Pour into ice popsicle cups or traditional popsicle molds. Freeze for 45 minutes, insert popsicle sticks, and continue to freeze until popsicles are set, preferably overnight. |
