Summer alert! Let’s prepare Lassi the Punjabi way
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Lassi is a yogurt-based drink, which is prepared by churning homemade yogurt and flavoring it with some cardamom powder. It is one of the most sought after and popular among Indian summer drinks.

It is a traditional Punjabi drink which has become popular all over the world recently. You can make a sweet or savory version of it but the sweet one is more popular.

Lassi or Buttermilk?

Despite the fact that both lassi and buttermilk are Indian summer drinks they are highly different from each other.

Buttermilk: It’s a popular drink from Gujarat and Rajasthan. It is prepared from the liquid left after taking out butter from the milk. It has a thin consistency and is savory.

Lassi: It’s a popular drink from Punjab that is prepared from yogurt. It is thick, smooth, and creamy in texture and can be both sweet as well as salty in taste.

Variations of Lassi

The traditional variation of Lassi can be modified by adding various fruits like strawberry, mangoes, banana, kiwi, and many more. You can even grill the fruits and then blend them with yogurt for a delicious depth of flavors. You can also flavor it with some rose syrup or chocolate sauce and also with some dry fruits of your choice.

Punjabi Lassi Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 400 g Plain Yogurt (Chilled)
  • 1/4 cup Powdered Sugar
