Instructions

Puree the black jamun until smooth. Set aside.
In a bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, sugar (if using), and salt. Beat until smooth and creamy.
Gently fold the jamun puree into the yogurt mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, which can deflate the yogurt.
Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container, cover tightly, and freeze for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the yogurt to fully set.
Once frozen, let the yogurt soften slightly at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping and serving. Enjoy this refreshing treat on a hot day!

Recipe Notes

Good To Know

Sugar is optional.
For a smoother texture, strain the blended Jamun pulp through a fine sieve before mixing it with the hung curd.
For a tart flavor, add a squeeze of fresh lime juice or a pinch of black salt.
For an elegant presentation, serve in chilled glasses and garnish with toasted sesame seeds or fresh mint.
For a vegan version, substitute hung curd with thick coconut or almond yogurt, and use maple syrup or agave nectar instead of sugar.

Expert Tips

If fresh Jamun fruit is unavailable, frozen Jamun pulp can be used as a substitute. Ensure it's thawed completely before blending.
Adjust the sweetness according to your preference by adding more or less sugar/sweetener.
For a richer flavor, roast the Jamun fruits lightly before blending.

Storage Instructions

Store leftover Jamun frozen yogurt in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Allow it to soften slightly at room temperature before serving.
