Fremgangsmåde
Trin for trin
- 1
Measure and combine the plain yogurt, cold water, salt, and ground cumin into a high-speed blender.
Kokkens note: Using full-fat plain yogurt will yield a creamier, richer lassi, while low-fat yogurt will result in a lighter beverage.
- 2
Secure the blender lid and blend the mixture on high speed for 30 seconds to 1 minute, until it becomes completely smooth and develops a frothy top.
Ca. 1 min.
Kokkens note: Ensure there are no lumps of yogurt remaining for a perfectly silky texture. If using a less powerful blender, you might need to blend for a slightly longer duration.
- 3
Add the ice cubes to the blender and pulse briefly, just until the ice is crushed and evenly incorporated into the lassi.
Kokkens note: This step is crucial for achieving a perfectly chilled lassi and a slightly thicker, more refreshing consistency without diluting the flavor too much.
- 4
Carefully pour the freshly blended salted lassi into two individual serving glasses.
- 5
Garnish each glass with a fresh mint leaf before serving immediately.
Kokkens note: Gently clap the mint leaves between your palms before garnishing to release their aromatic oils, enhancing the sensory experience.

Bevar den gode smag
Salted lassi is a fantastic palate cleanser and a wonderful accompaniment to rich Indian curries or spicy dishes. For a slight variation, you can add a pinch of black salt (kala namak) for an extra tangy, sulfuric kick, or a tiny piece of grated ginger for a warming note. Serve alongside dishes like Chicken Tikka Masala, Lamb Rogan Josh, or Vegetable Biryani for a complete meal experience.
Store any leftover salted lassi in an airtight container or pitcher in the refrigerator.
This beverage is best enjoyed fresh and cold. Reheating is not recommended as it can alter the texture and flavor of the yogurt.
