ABOUT Fruit and Yogurt Parfait RECIPE

Ingredients Serving: 4

2 cup low fat home made curd
2 cup chopped fruits of your choice (I have used kiwi , strawberry, orange, banana and grapes)
2 tablespoon strawberry crush (crush 4-5 strawberries with 1 tablespoon sugar using a blender)
2 tablespoon honey
1 cup muesli/ cornflakes/ crushed cookies or biscuits

Instructions

Line a colander with a muslin cloth. Add 2 cup store brought or home made curd to it. Gather edges and tie a knot. Hang this cloth over a kitchen sink for 10-15 minutes. This step removes extra water from the curd making it thick and creamy.
Meanwhile chop the fruits and except banana , refrigerate the rest fruits until use. Also keep the empty dessert glasses into the refrigerator .
Roughly divide the yogurt in 2 bowls. To one part add the strawberry crush and whisk with a wire whisker to get a smooth, lump free yogurt.
To the other part add honey and whisk. You may add vanilla extract also here.
Take the chilled dessert glasses, fruits ,flavored yogurt and muesli and start assembling the dessert.
There is no fixed method for this you can arrange the ingredients in any order. I have started with a layer of muesli. Add 2 spoons of honey flavored yogurt over it. Then a layer of chopped mixed fruits.
Above it add 2 spoons of strawberry flavored yogurt, top it with a layer of muesli and so on. Repeat the layers until the glass is filled. Lastly top the glass with chopped nuts or fruit crush or honey or caramel .
Serve immediately or chill the glasses until serving time.
