Hazırlanışı
Adım adım
- 1
Gather all ingredients: plain yogurt, chilled water, fresh mint leaves, green chili, grated ginger, black salt, roasted cumin powder, and ice cubes.
Aşçının notu: Using chilled water helps maintain the cold temperature of the drink, which is essential for a refreshing Ghol.
- 2
Carefully wash and pat dry the fresh mint leaves, then remove them from their stems.
Aşçının notu: Fresh mint is key for the vibrant flavor; avoid dried mint for this recipe.
- 3
If using, finely chop the green chili, removing seeds if you prefer less heat.
Aşçının notu: The amount of green chili can be adjusted to your spice preference; a small piece adds a subtle kick.
- 4
Combine the plain yogurt, chilled water, fresh mint leaves, chopped green chili, grated ginger, black salt, and roasted cumin powder into a high-speed blender.
Aşçının notu: Ensure the ginger is finely grated or minced to prevent fibrous bits in the final drink.
- 5
Secure the blender lid and blend the mixture on high speed until it is completely smooth and a light froth forms on top.
Yaklaşık 2 dk.
Aşçının notu: Blend for at least 60-90 seconds to fully incorporate all ingredients and achieve a creamy, frothy texture.
- 6
Taste the Ghol and adjust the seasonings as needed, adding more black salt for tanginess or roasted cumin powder for depth of flavor.
Yaklaşık 1 dk.
Aşçının notu: Black salt (kala namak) provides a unique pungent, sulfuric flavor; if unavailable, use regular salt but note the flavor will be different.
- 7
Pour the freshly blended Ghol into two serving glasses.
- 8
Add 2 ice cubes to each glass just before serving to keep the drink perfectly chilled.
Aşçının notu: Adding ice just before serving prevents the Ghol from becoming watered down too quickly.

Tazeliğini koruyun
Ghol is a fantastic accompaniment to spicy meals, as its cooling properties help balance the heat. For a richer version, you can use full-fat yogurt. Feel free to experiment with a tiny pinch of black pepper or a squeeze of lime juice for an extra layer of flavor. It's also a wonderful way to use up extra mint from your garden!
Store any leftover Ghol in an airtight container or covered pitcher in the refrigerator.
Ghol is best enjoyed fresh and chilled. Do not reheat. If it separates slightly, stir well before serving.
