The first baskets of fresh brightly-colored local peaches may have coincided with a spell of intensely hot and humid weather, but the way the summer in southwestern Ontario is going this year the introduction of every kind of local produce will be met with the same. Time for some simple recipes to beat the heat and to keep me out of the kitchen as much as possible, and a cold peach and yogurt lassi does just both those tricks.
Fruit lassis are an invention of India, where they know a thing or two about hot weather. Made from blended ice, yogurt, fruit and frequently a little Indian spicing, lassis are ridiculously simple to make and they're delightfully cold, smooth, and creamy — satisfying like an ice cream milkshake but lighter and easier on the stomach with the added refreshing tang from the yogurt and fresh lime juice. Lassis are a perfect vehicle for sweet fresh peaches, and I've added a dash of cardamom for a hint of spicy-sweet flavor and fragrance.
The beautiful color, aroma and flavor of fresh peaches makes this lassi a perfect drink to serve on the patio during an afternoon summer, but it's also great for breakfast too!
