Ingredients:
500 ml. very chilled pasteurised whole milk
2 tbsp.sugar
1/4 tsp. cardamom powder
2 drops vanilla essence
Preparations:
Put all ingredients in a nescafe shaker or a tupperware leakproof glass with
lid. Shake vigorously, up and down at least 25-30 times. All the sugar should
have dissolved and a thick froth formed on the milk. Pour out into tall
glasses, serve immediately, while still chilled. Any leftover may be
refrigerated in shaker, shaken and served later. Traditional way to make it:
Take two tumblers which can pour out easily. Pour lassi ingredients in one,
hold empty one in other hand. Now the contents are poured from one into the
other. This is done in a brisk motion keeping both tumblers at least 2 feet
apart. That is the contents are poured from the top one to the bottom tumbler
lower down. This is done at least 21 one times (a figure fondly used to
describe the lassi). Pour into drinking glass while still frothy and serve with chopped dry fruits.
