Hang the freshly made full cream yoghurt into a muslin cloth for a couple of hours.
In a mixing bowl, remove the hung yoghurt and add to it the soaked saffron mix, castor sugar and cardamom powder. Mix well and whisk till a thick creamy texture is obtained.
Cover and chill in the refrigerator for a couple of hours. Serve garnished with pistachio slivers.
Shrikhand can also be made using various fresh fruits like pomegranate, grapes, strawberries and mango. In summers, add fresh mango puree and reduce the amount of sugar.
