Mangoes
are in season now and being a diehard mango fan I end up buying box of
mangoes whenever I see them. Usually mangoes goes straight into my tummy and doesn’t get a chance to be experimented , but this time mangoes I picked up were a bit fibrous and the vein like part was
getting stuck in teeth, so it wasn’t that
good for eating so I decided to make lassi with it. I love mango lassi’s, the only drink I order from Indian restaurants. I know that the restaurant ones are
not made from fresh mangoes. It's made with mango pulp that comes out from a tin and has tons of sugar in it, but still I order it as it's hard to resist the tempation of a mango drink ! But if you would like to make a healthy version I would suggest making
your own lassi when mangoes are in season and enjoy this drink without the
guilt.
Ingredients (Serves 4-5 )
Mangoes
– 4 ( peeled and chopped)
Yogurt
– 1 ¼ cup
Milk
– 3/4 cup
Sugar
- 4-5 tbs or according to your taste or
sweetness of the mango
Cardamom
powder – ¼ tsp
Method
Blend
everything together together in a blender and chill
Notes
– I made mango puree first and sieved it to get rid of the insoluble fiber in
the pulp and then blended the puree with rest of the ingredients.

Who doesn't like a good thick mango lassi??? Delicious...
Can you believe, I am yet to taste this season's mango. Where I live, good ones are yet to come. I saw some Paki ones but all with dents. Lassi is the best way to beat the heat and mango flavoured is a bonus! :-)
Perfect summer cooler. Great way to enjoy mangoes.
Perfect summer drink...and nice clicks.
