About
Cherry Shrikhand is a popular Indian dessert made by mixing strained yogurt (hung curd) with sugar and flavorings. Fresh or canned cherries are added to enhance the taste, giving it a fruity, tangy flavor. The dish is flavored with cardamom and saffron, offering a rich, aromatic touch. It is chilled for a few hours to allow the flavors to meld together. Served as a refreshing dessert, Cherry Shrikhand is often garnished with chopped cherries and nuts for added texture.
