BENGALI MISHTI DOI/ SWEET YOGHURT


Mishti doi , a Bengali sweet. Bengali is a sweet language to here to, also bengalis are known for their love for sweets.

I have used jaggery as the sweetner. It can also be prepared with sugar or even caramelized sugar. The quantity of sweetner can be adjusted according to personal preference.

Like the bhappa doi this dish is not steamed. It is set in a ceramic serving dish.This is one easy-to-make dish with less ingredients and simple procedure.

You will surely get hooked on to this luscious summer dessert.
