Cardamoms fried fresh in the Ghee, powdered in a mortar or mixer and added to any sweet is really perfect.But sometimes the quantity, being less, crushing 2 or 3 Cardamoms are not that easy.At such times the powder is very handy.
Within, just 5 to 10 minutes, sugar, Ghee, Cardamom powder and some base in the shelf, a sweet can be prepared as we are always on our heels.
This powder can be also mixed with the tea powder, if we have the habit of adding Cardamom with the tea.For the past 20 years, I mix Cardamom Powder with the tea leaves or powder to be used within the month. Back from work, no trouble of crushing the Cardamom in the mortar which must be dry.
Just by mixing milk with water and adding sugar and the tea powder, simmering the flame, the tea is ready as soon as we return after a wash.
Ingredients :
Cardamom 20
Sugar 2 tbsp.
Method :
The Cardamom, the small mixer jar and the lid must be dry. If not, dry in the sun. Powder finely and store in an airtight container to be used within 2 months for the aroma.
Using later than that is harmless but the aroma may be missing.
Some people grind for 30 seconds, then the Cardamoms are only partially crushed and the outer skin may be seen separate. They mix only that with the tea leaves. The rest is powdered finely and stored for the sweets.
