It is quick to prepare using pantry staples, making it an effortless yet impressive addition to your dessert repertoire.Ingredients

In a separate small bowl, combine the buttermilk, ground ginger, ground cardamom, garam masala, and nutmeg.
-
Add the grated lemon rind to the buttermilk spice mixture and stir gently to combine.

Gently fold the buttermilk mixture into the whipped cream using a spatula, being careful not to deflate the cream.
