Preparing Indian Masala Tea (Chai)


Masala Chai is one popular tea in India. It is preferred by all from all corners of the country. Today, I’ll tell you (those who still don’t know how to prepare the same) how to prepare it. Here it goes.

First you have to prepare the masala (mixture of spices) and here is how you prepare the masala. Take the following things:
1.       A cup of dried ginger
2.       ½ cup of green cardamom (elaichi) pods
3.       A Tablespoon peppercorns
4.       Six or seven 2” cinnamon sticks
Now, grind the spices together and your masala is done.

For the tea, take a cup of water and put to hear. Add one and a half sugar, a quarter teaspoon of the masala you prepared two pinches of cardamom powder and a teaspoon tea leaves. Allow the mixture to simmer till the aroma emanates. Now add a cup of milk and then bring the tea to boil. Now allow it to simmer for another two minutes. Take it off from the flam an cover it. Keep it aside for two minutes. Drain the leaves from the tea and the tea is ready to be served.

Isn’t it easy?
