Yoghurt is drained in a cloth for several hours until it becomes thick and creamy like fresh cheese, then seasoned with saffron, sugar and rose water. The dessert is often served with puri or as the end of a celebratory meal.</p> <p>The trick lies in the draining. Once the whey is gone, you are left with a firm yoghurt cheese — called chakka — that has concentrated tanginess and a velvety texture. That texture is what carries the dessert&rsquo;s flavour.</p>
