Pineapple Mint Frozen Yoghurt

                                                                         


I had made this recipe sometime back when my younger daughter was visiting. Now my daughter is one of those persons who is game to try most anything but when it comes to desserts she is very, very choosy....her choice being limited to chocolate!! Anything with chocolate is most welcome but she can be reluctant, to the point of being obstinate, about any non choco desserts.   To my immense surprise and joy she gave this recipe a huge thumbs up!  Yayy!

Pineapple and fresh mint leaves go so well together.  Add yoghurt to it and you have a super cool recipe on your hands. This  light and refreshing dessert requires no cooking. All you have to do is blend everything together and chill it.  Can it get simpler than this?

Ingredients: 

1 mid size pineapple tin
3 cups yoghurt
1/2 tin condensed milk
1/4 cup fresh mint leaves
1 cup cream

Method:  Take a deep bowl and cover it with a muslin cloth. Place yoghurt on the muslin cloth gently and leave it aside to allow all water to drain gradually.

Keeping aside a few pieces of pineapple for garnish blend the remaining using a blender. Add the fresh mint leaves to blended pineapple.  Also add the drained yoghurt, condensed milk and cream. Blend well.  Pour in a serving dish and cover with cling film. Chill for several hours in the refrigerator. Garnish with pineapple pieces and a sprig of mint before serving.

There is no added sugar in this recipe, the sweetness being provided by the  condensed milk. This dessert should be mildly sweet so add condensed milk accordingly.
