Fool's Gold - jackfruit shrikhand

In the western states of Gujarat and Maharashtra in India, there is a popular dish called shrikhand. Yoghurt is strained in a cloth so that it loses most of its water to make hung curd (chakka). This is then mixed with different flavourings.

None

250 ml (1 cup)

full fat (10%) strained Greek Yogurt

150 ml

(just over 1/2 cup) whipping cream

375 ml (1 1/2 cups)

3-4 tbsps

1/4 tsp

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Take three bowls. In the first bowl, whisk the cream until it holds. In the second bowl, whisk the jackfruit pulp until smooth and lump free. In the third bowl, whisk the Greek yoghurt until smooth and silky. Mix the jackfruit and Greek yoghurt together with the icing sugar, saffron and cardamom then gently fold in the whipped cream.

* Step 2

To serve as a fool, place in bowls, then cover and chill for 1-2 hours before serving topped with crushed pistachios and a few saffron strands. To serve as ice cream, place in an ice cream maker with some chopped pistachios and a few strands of saffron then churn for 30 to 45 minutes before freezing.

* Step 3

NB: Use icing sugar rather than granulated sugar as granulated will release moisture and make the shrikhand too runny. If you don’t have any icing sugar just blast granulated or caster in a high speed blender.
