Thai Iced Tea

Thai iced tea is a flavorful chilled black tea with condensed milk. Thai tea leaves are available in certain stores or even in amazon while you can also make this flavorful tea at your home with black tea leaves itself. Let's see how to make this tea. As far as i had this tea, i just loved it to the core and it totally aids in easy digestion. With just black tea leaves you can make the delightful tea with few spices like cardamom, cinnamon stick, star anise and vanilla essence. I skipped vanilla essence as i just preferred it that way. You can add a creamer or skip condensed milk and just have the chilled tea as you like it. Either ways it tastes damn good and refreshing. Do try this recipe and have this as a refreshment beverage after breakfast in the morning and you will just fall for it! Happy Cooking 😃😃😃 Ingredients: 1 tsp Thai tea or black tea 1 inch cinnamon stick 2 cardamon 1 star anise 1 tsp sugar 1/4 cup condensed milk 1 cup water few ice cubes 1/...

Chicken Drumstick Curry

It's the season of drumsticks here at my home and every other visitor of my house gets to enjoy atleast 4-5 drumsticks for free. But we take it for granted and hardly cook dishes using drumstick or the moringa leaves. Even the drumstick flowers carry nutritional benefits for our eyes and eye sight, i should give it a try next time to put these flowers into rasam or just a drumstick flower tea. Today i had a craving to eat chicken and asked my mom to buy chicken for me but i had this idea of cooking chicken curry with drumstick slowly cooked with coconut milk. So i had reserved this idea in my mind for few days to make this curry and trust me it's definitely a bomb! Needless to say the flavors of slow cooked drumstick and the coconut milk makes this dish so very exotic! Do give it a try and share your valuable feedback - it really matters a lot. Happy Cooking :) 1 drumstick 2 sprig curry leaves 1 cup thick coconut milk 500 gms of chicken 2 tsp red chilli powder 1 t...
