For a Serving Size of Two:
Ingredients:
- 200 grams thick coconut cream
- 100 ml milk
- 15 grams thandai powder (a blend of almonds, pistachios, cardamom, saffron, and other spices)
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons gelatin or agar-agar
- 30 ml warm water (to dissolve gelatin)
- 10 grams chopped almonds and pistachios
- A pinch of saffron strands
Procedure:
- In a small bowl, dissolve gelatin in warm water and let it sit for about 5 minutes to bloom. If using agar-agar, follow package instructions for dissolution.
- In a saucepan, gently heat the milk and stir in the thandai powder and sugar until fully combined. Remove from heat and mix in the bloomed gelatin until dissolved. Allow the mixture to cool slightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, fold the whipped cream into the thandai mixture gently until fully combined. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream too much.
- Pour the mixture into serving glasses or bowls. Refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours, or until set.
- Once set, garnish with chopped almonds, pistachios, and a few saffron strands if desired. Serve chilled.
