Mango yogurt mousse recipe, with ricotta

A simple and easy mango mousse with yogurt and ricotta as main ingredients. No gelatin or agar agar. Delicious treat for summer and mango season.

Mango mania in my blog continues. This is a simple recipe I made when I was thinking what to do with some leftover ricotta in my pantry.  I have never bought ricotta cheese so far, have always replaced with hung curd or ground paneer. I got this for a television shoot (will update more about it once it’s live). So did not want to waste the ricotta, as well as try something new with it and tried mango yogurt mousse.

On a different note, I think I am going on a short break from blogging. I am in India right now to take care of In laws for sometime. So will be back after 3 weeks or so with interesting recipes. As of now, do follow me in my social media handles to get updates and revisit old recipes. (Instagram, facebook)

Please choose plain, natural yogurt without any artificial flavour or additives/ thickening agents. Also if you want you can use natural sweeteners like honey, agave, maple syrup (though it won’t be low in calorie, it is better for health)

Mango thandai recipe, easy aam thandai

Mango thandai with simple ingredients and procedure. A yummy twist to the regular thandai, with the tropical fruit added for flavour in this thandai inspired drink.

I got to know this simple thandai recipe from my friend and love it a lot. I saw this idea of mango thandai in a restaurant menu in Insta feed and wanted to try this mango season. This year, I haven’t purchased much mangoes as I did not frequent Indian groceries like I used to. Only a couple of dozens may be. Banganapalli and Alphonso, one dozen in each.

So tried mango thandai when I had stock of mangoes. For such drinks and dishes with mango, I prefer Alphonso as it gives colour, flavour and for it’s sweetness as well.

I have cashew in this recipe instead of 1 tsp khus khus (poppy seeds). You can also use magz in place of it.

Mango thandai

Mango thandai with simple ingredients and procedure. A yummy twist to the regular thandai, with the tropical fruit added for flavour in this thandai inspired drink

• 1 Mango (large Alphonso)
• 7 almonds
• 3 cashews
• 5 black pepper
• 1/8 tsp cumin seeds
• 1/8 tsp fennel seeds
• 2 cardamoms (green)
• 3 tbsp sugar
• 1 cup milk (boiled & chilled)
• 1/4 cup water

1. First soak almonds, cashews, pepper, cumin, fennel in  enough water for an hour.
2. Peel the almonds and grind it smoothly with the other ingredients we soaked. Use 1/4 cup water for grinding.
3. Filter it through a metal strainer. Discard the remains.
4. Blend the pulp of mango with sugar(scooped using a spoon form a sliced mango)
5. Mix ground pulp with the previously ground item.
6. Add boiled cooled milk and mix well. You can also run everything in a blender for a spin to mix.
7. Enjoy cold.

• Instead of cashew, use a tsp of khus khus or magaz seeds.
• Do not skip straining the ground nuts/ spices.
• Avoid using black pepper more than mentioned.
• Adjust mango pulp according to the taste you want.
• It is best to consume as soon as you mix milk with mango.

Mango thandai method:

1. First soak almonds, cashews, pepper, cumin, fennel in  enough water for an hour.
   
2. Peel the almonds
   
3. Grind it smoothly with the other ingredients we soaked. Use 1/4 cup water for grinding.
   
4. Filter it through a metal strainer. Discard the remains.
