When I had read about this recipe I hadn't thought that it would turn out such wonderful and dellicious stuff.. You must try this :)
Ingredients
1/2 Coconut
1 Cup Chakka
8 Spoon Sugar
A pinch of Cardamom Powder
A pinch of Safron
Salt to taste
Method
- Grate the coconut and grind it mixing some water and strain to get the coconut milk
- Mix chakka, safron, cardamom powder, sugar and salt and grind it in the mixie
- Add the coconut milk to it and again grind for few minutes
- Add ice and grind if the mixture is too thick
- Garnish with Safron and Serve Chilled
Notes
Chakka can be bought readymade or can be prepared at home. Actually i kept 1 cup chakka aside when I prepared it for Shrikhand. The recipe for Chakka is present in both these recipies : Shrikhand and Amrakhand
Normally i use light coconut milk from fresh coconut hence i did not add ice, but if you are using readymade coconut milk which is very thick add either ice or water. 3 cups of ready made coconut milk, 1 cup ice/water would be sufficient for 1 cup chakka
