As a housewife, I'm always looking for new and easy recipes to add to my repertoire. This Chai I recipe is a perfect example of a dish that is both delicious and simple to make. The combination of black tea, spices, and milk creates a warm and comforting beverage that is perfect for any time of day.
I love that this recipe is so versatile. You can make it with or without milk and sugar, and you can adjust the spices to your own taste. I also like that it is a relatively healthy drink, with only 56 calories per serving.
I've made this recipe several times now, and it has quickly become one of my favorites. I especially love to enjoy it on a cold winter day.
Step-by-step
- Combine the water, tea, masala, cardamon, and 1 tsp of the sugar in a large saucepan and simmer over low heat for 5 min.
- Add the milk and the rest of the sugar.
- Add the ginger 1-2 min after that, or when the mixture returns to a simmer.
- Wait for 15-30 seconds, then strain the tea into 2 cups.
