Instructions

1

Prepare the Ambasha: Mix the whole wheat flour with a splash of water to form a tight dough. Flatten into a small disc and steam over simmering water for 15 minutes until firm and cooked through.

2

Brew the tea: Steep the black tea bag and crushed cardamom pods in 100ml of boiling water for 4 minutes until dark and aromatic.

3

Combine: Remove the tea bag and cardamom. Stir in the warm camel milk and honey. The liquid should become opaque and creamy with a distinct spice fragrance.

4

Plating: Serve the steaming spiced tea in a small glass alongside the warm, rustic steamed bread. Tear the bread by hand and dip into the sweet, spiced milk tea.
