Make it: Mango lassi

2
Gobbler’s fine young lassi

‘What’s that, Lassi, the readers have sampled you in Indian restaurants around the country, and are now stuck trying to recreate you in their kitchens? Let’s go see if old Mr & Mrs Gobbler can’t help them out…’

Laboured Lassie pun over. We found this tin of mango pulp in our local Morrisons, and immediately thought lassi. It’s way much cheaper than buying real mangoes. Here’s how it went down:

(Serves 2)

1/2 tin of mango pulp, (or 1 ripe mango, if you’re feeling flush)
150ml/5fl oz milk
175ml/6fl oz natural yogurt
2 tsp sugar

  1. Put everything into a food processor or blender, and blitz until smooth
  2. Serve in tall glasses with a few ice cubes for good measure

The sums
TOTAL: £1.30p
OR 65p per person

Compared to
Your average restaurant-bought lassi, £2
