  1. 2 cups yogurt
  2. 10-15 mint leaves
  3. 1/2 teaspoon black salt
  4. 1/4 teaspoon roasted cumin powder (bhuna jeera)
  5. 4-5 ice cubes
  6. To Serve:
  7. 2 tall glasses

Method

  1. Combine all the ingredients in a blender leaving a few mint leaves for garnishing and blend till smooth.
  2. Pour the lassi into glasses and sprinkle little roasted cumin powder on the top.
  3. Garnish with mint leaves and serve immediately.

Recipe Tips:

  • Use fresh yogurt; do not use sour yogurt as it will not taste good.
  • To make roasted cumin powder, roast cumin seeds in a flat pan on medium heat till they turn brown in colour (while stirring constantly). Turn off the heat and take them out in a dish. Cumin seeds get roasted very quickly so be careful not to burn them. Let the roasted cumin seeds cool to room temperature. Grind them in a spice grinder or in a mortar and pestle. Store in an air-tight jar and use as required.
