Agra wali - adrak chai










Agra wali ginger chai! It was the best chai we had. The chai was so tasty on a chilly winter morning. The tasty tea brought us back to the dabba in the evening! After seeing TAJ, walking and revisiting the love story of a great ruler and his beloved wife.

We have visited Agra in 2014 on chilly winter after attending a wedding at Delhi. Kids were at Canada and we two me and Ravi had a few days break from our schedule. 

I still remember the photo session we both underwent with our guide in Agra! 



















Let me share with you the secret recipe. 

For tea masala. 

Ingredients


2 elachi 

3 clove

1 inch ginger piece(peeled and crushed)

2 teaspoon sugar

Method

*Dry roast one elachi and clove. 

*Crush a small piece of ginger add elachi and clove and ground further. Add this masala to your chai. 

*I use tata gold tea leaves/wagh bakri tea( I get it specially ordered, as most of the shops here don't have this brand)

*For best results allow your chai pathi (leaves) and ground masala to slowly cook in milk and water. 

*Add sugar and strain your yummy Agra wali chai.

The dabbawala was in all smiles when he shared his recipe.
