Using greek yoghurt this recipe for shrikhand is the simplest and tastiest one so far at home.
Greek yoghurt which is widely used in Mediterranean food is strained to remove the excess of whey and sugar making it creamier. It also has more protein content by cutting the sugar compared to regular yoghurt adding good health benefits.
You can also prepare this recipes using regular yoghurt by straining it to remove excess of water.
