Mango lassi with saffron and cardamom

Some time ago I made a mango-coconut cream, and someone asked me whether I could also give a recipe for mango lassi. A very good idea, and just as the malai kofta, it is one of the first things I enjoy when I go to Kathmandu. Normally this is the season for me to be there with my friends from Solukhumbu trekking. So here is the recipe for my mango lassi with saffron and cardamom.

Ingredients:

• 1 mango (ready to eat)
• a few saffron threads
• 3 cardamonies
• 150 grams of natural yoghurt
• 50 ml milk
• Agavejuice to sweeten (you may also use honey or something similar)

Method:

• Dissolve the saffron in a sone lukewarm water.
• Peel the cardamons, and grind the inner parts of it.
• Peel the mango.
• Put everything in the blender and mix well.
