Special #Breakfast this Sunday morning. #MasalaOats from "Parsi" by Farokh Talati and South Indian #FilterCoffee with Oat Milk. The oats were fantastic and pretty easy to makee. Vegetarian but can be vegan without Ghee.
We are so excited to go through more #recipes in this book!
For @mitch_deadberg - we wanted to show you how we make South Indian Filter Coffee! This coffee (a 80:20 mixture of coffee / chicory) is made with a metal filter. This filter makes enough for about 2 times but can be found in bigger sizes. You put about 2-4 tbsp of coffee depending on how strong you want it. You place the metal plunger on top, pour the water and then let the decoction brew. It usually takes about a half hour.
@mitch_deadberg Once the decoction is finished, you can start to boil milk on the stove. You can use any milk - dairy is probably best but we use soy and oat.
While the milk is boiling, you pour some of the decoction into a metal cup. Traditionally, you have filter coffee in metal cups with a tumbler and a saucer. Once you add the decoction, you can also add sugar.
@mitch_deadberg Then the fun really begins! Once the milk is warm but just getting to a boil, you turn it off and you pour it into the tumbler. The higher the better - that way you get the froth!
@mitch_deadberg Once you get a nice foam, you can sit down and enjoy! This is our way of doing it but everyone has some variations.
Full Disclosure: We usually use soy or oat milk, the later which just doesn't foam up as well as regular milk. So the foam in the photo below was made with an electric foam maker. But still just as tasty! It foams up perfectly with dairy milk (and better with soy).
We have had a really busy week and we have not had a chance to post much this week. Here is a moment of taking much needed break on one of our last warm days in Chicago with some South Indian Filter Coffee.
National Medical Commission’s latest order on seat allocation viewed as unfair to southern States
The recommendation that colleges seeking approval from the National Medical Commission should follow the ratio of 100 MBBS seats per 10 lakh population will punish States that have performed well on this front and undermine federalism in healthcare, say doctors.
