Salted Mint Lassi Recipe

Vegetarian Recipe of the Month

February 2021

Ingredients:

2 cups plain yogurt
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped mint leaves
½ teaspoon black salt
½ cup ice cubes
Water
Pinch or two of ground roasted cumin seeds

Directions

Blend half of the yogurt with mint leaves until smooth. Add the rest of the yogurt and black salt and pulse a few times to combine. Ideally, the lassi is not frothy, but a smooth cool drink. Fill the glasses a third with ice and pour lassi over to fill glass. Add a pinch of roasted cumin powder (dry fry cumin powder over medium-high heat for 30 seconds until toasted and lightly browned) and garnish with mint leaves.

Yield: 1 serving
