Instructions
Prep
Line a sieve with double-layer muslin. Spoon 400g Greek yogurt into muslin, tie corners to form pouch. Crush 4 green cardamom pods to powder. Crush 2 small pinches saffron between fingers. Have 160g mango pulp, 50g icing sugar, 2 tsp warm milk, pistachios, and almonds ready.
Simmer
Suspend yogurt pouch in fridge over a bowl at cool temperature for 4 hours or overnight until whey drains and yogurt becomes thick, dense, and cream cheese-like. Volume should halve to approximately 200g.
Build
Sprinkle crushed saffron into 2 tsp warm milk, let sit 5 minutes until deep gold. Tip drained hung yogurt into a bowl, whisk with balloon whisk 1-2 minutes until silky smooth and glossy with no lumps.
Finish
Whisk icing sugar into yogurt until combined. Whisk in mango pulp, crushed cardamom, and saffron milk until streaked gold and pale orange with no lumps visible.
Chill and plate
Spoon shrikhand into 2 chilled 250ml glasses, swirling the tops. Chill at least 30 minutes. Top each with slivered pistachios and flaked almonds just before serving.
