Strawberry Lassi is always one of my favorite Lassi other than Mango Lassi. Lassi is a popular and traditional yogurt-based drink which originates in the Punjab region. The yogurt sweetened with honey is used while performing religious rituals. Lassis are enjoyed chilled as a hot-weather refreshment, mostly taken with lunch. With a little turmeric powder mixed in, it is also used as a folk remedy for gastroenteritis. Strawberry fruit is very low in saturated fat, cholesterol and sodium. It is also a good source of folate and potassium, and a very good source of dietary fiber, and manganese. One serving of about eight strawberries provides more vitamin C than an orange. The strawberry is among the top 20 fruits in antioxidant capacity.(Information is taken from Wiki).So lets see the simple and healthy strawberry lassi recipe... I already posted a strawberry lassi during my early days of blogging and as I do not like the clicks, I repost again.
Ingredients
- Strawberry - 1 cup (250 gms)
- Yogurt/Curd - 2 cups
- Water - 1 cup
- Milk - 1/2 cup
- Sugar/Honey - 1/2 cup
- Ice cubes - as required
Method
Chop the strawberries into half. Add the strawberries, yogurt, water, milk and sugar into the blender or mixie/food processor and blend to a smooth texture. Filter the sediments and pour into serving glass and serve with the ice cubes.
Note:
Since I added water and milk, my Lassi was bit watery. So you can avoid the water and try.
Adjust sugar according to the sweetness of strawberry.
