Subject: LACTO: Masala Chai
SPICY INDIAN TEA (Masala=spice Chai=tea)
Ingredients
3 - 4 Tea Spoons/4 Teabags of good tea (Darjeeling/Orange Pekoke/Lipton)
A chunk of dry ginger (or fresh ginger if dry isn't handy)
3 - 4 cardmom pods, crushed (See Note below)
3 Cloves
Small piece of cinnamon
A Tsp of SOANP
(I don't know the name. Can be found at Indian grocers. Also
indian restaurants keep this for your pleasure after dinner
Looks like cummin seeds)
1 or 2 whole black peppers (optional)
Sugar to taste
Milk (atleast Vitamin D, low fat won't do)
Bring 2 cups of water to boil (microwave or otherwise)
Add all the ingredients and boil again for about 15 seconds.
Let stand for a minute.
Warm milk in a pot.
Filter tea into cups. Add milk and sugar. That's IT.
Note: Since cardmom is expensive, I peel them and add the skin to
my stock of tea leaves. This gives a distinct aroma. Of course you
boil the skin with water.
If you don't like to spend much time, mix all the spices and
coarsley grind them. Boil water and add tea and a tsp of
this ground spices. Rest is as above.
ENJOY
