Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Spices

    Crush the cardamom pods and ginger using a mortar and pestle or a rolling pin. This will help release the flavors into the milk.

  2. 2

    Measure Ingredients

    Gather and measure out all the ingredients: milk, sugar, crushed cardamom, crushed ginger, and cinnamon stick.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Heat the Milk

    In a saucepan, add the 2 cups of milk and place it on medium heat. Stir occasionally to prevent it from burning.

  2. 4

    Add Spices and Sugar

    Once the milk is warm (not boiling), add the 2 tablespoons of sugar, crushed cardamom, crushed ginger, and the cinnamon stick. Stir well.

  3. 5

    Simmer the Mixture

    Let the mixture simmer for about 5-7 minutes, allowing the spices to infuse the milk. Stir occasionally.

  4. 6

    Strain and Serve

    Remove the saucepan from heat. Strain the hot doodh into cups or mugs to separate the solid spices. Optionally, garnish with chopped nuts and saffron strands.
