Ingredients

  • ½ cup old fashioned oats
  • ½ cup + 2 tablespoons plain greek yogurt refer notes for using regular yogurt
  • ½ cup milk
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons sugar
  • ½ teaspoon cardamom powder
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 small pinch saffron crushed with your fingertips
  • Chopped almonds or pistachios optional

Instructions

  • Combine all ingredients (except nuts) in a mason jar or container and stir well.
  • Cover and place in the refrigerator overnight or at least 6 hours.
  • Stir once, garnish with chopped nuts (if using) and enjoy.

Notes

Sugar is what an authentic taste to shrikand. Please do nut substitute honey or maple syrup.
Use plain greek yogurt and not flavored variety.
If you do not have greek yogurt, then strain 1 cup of plain yogurt in a muslin cloth (several layers of cheesecloth) lined inside a strainer and placed over a bowl, for several hours (in the refrigerator). Measure ½ cup + 2 tablespoons for the recipe. For more detailed instructions on making greek yogurt from regular yogurt, check out "How to make greek yogurt"
