Lassi

🍽️

Lassi

Veg

Churned yogurt drink — thick full-fat yogurt blended with water and either sugar (sweet lassi) or salt and roasted cumin (salted lassi), churned until frothy and served in a tall clay kulhad or steel glass. Sweet lassi is the cooling summer drink of North India, while salted lassi aids digestion after a heavy meal. The Delhi version is thicker and richer than Punjabi roadside lassi and is often topped with a layer of malai (cream). Pairs with any oily, heavy North Indian meal.
