So feeling the need for something sweet to follow my smoked-salmon sandwiches in Hovis Original Wheatgerm (one has to celebrate the first warm day of Spring somehow), I decided to make some lassi. Usual suspects, usual method : ice cubes, kesar mango puree, Greek yoghurt, Rubicon mango juice, all put in a Kenwood Major goblet blender (ice cubes at the bottom) and whizzed. As I had measured nothing (as usual) and wanting to achieve an optimal consistency, I waited until the lassi had settled to a steady level and then cautiously removed the lid of the blender (which was still in full motion). Observing the behaviour of the lassi I was able to estimate its consistency, and added further Rubicon until the desired consistency had been achieved. At which point I turned the Major off. Now the lassi was completely stable at this point, about 1/2" below the rim of the goblet. But as the blender blades stopped, the lassi erupted into life, putting up a waterspout (lassispout, really) to a height of about 1 1/2". I have my own ideas on why this happened (it was, of course, completely unexpected) but would be interested to hear others' points of view.

Lassi obviously heard a cry of distress and had to get out there to help.
...sorry..
