- It's very simple.
- For one cup tea :
-
- tea bags : 2
- water : 2/3 cups
- milk : 1/2 cup
- masala : 1 cardomom or small piece of crushed ginger
- sugar : 1 teaspoon
-
-
- Put tea bags in water and let it boil vigorously for 5 minutes.
- Pour milk and add sugar. Let it boil until the milk rises.
- Add crushed cardomom pods or ginger.
- Serve hot.
-
- If you use ginger, take it out of tea before drinking.
- You can also use teapowder in which case, you need to filter tea
- as you would do for coffee.
- For better taste, tea should be boiled for long time. The more you
- boil, the creamy it will be.
-
- I find that tea powder is better than tea bags.
- The amount of sugar can be varied with your taste.
