SWEET POTATO MOUSSE

Ever since my childhood, I have always wondered one thing and that is "Mom is mom and the taste of her hand is the best. No matter how many good and exact ingredients I use, but when she makes the same thing, the dish turns out to be extremely best. Why? "
Again I got a chance to learn one of such lovely delicacies that she masters in.

Actually, this delicacy is called as SHAKKARIYA NU SHRIKHAND at my place where a shakkariya means sweet potato and shrikhand means an Indian sweet that has mousse like consistency.

Sweet Potato Mousse

Ingredients:
Sweet potato - 400 gms, peeled and pressure cooked for 2 whistles
Thick Curd - 500 gms
Sugar - 4-5 tbsp or As sweet you like to have
Saffron - a pinch
Ellaichi powder - 1 tsp

Method :

1. Once the potatoes are pressure cooked. Let them cool down and peel off the skin.

2. Now put them in th blender and gradually add curd while churning them to a mousse like consistency.

3. Add sugar, saffron and ellaichi powder and again give a nice churn.

4. Refrigerate it for few hours and serve chilled with garnish of some saffron strand

NOTE : YOU CAN ALSO ADD DRY FRUITS OF YOUR CHOICE.
