It’s tea time: 7 things to have with “Shaam ki chaii”
Do I need to explain here that how obsessed Pakistanis are with Chai? No matter what season it is; either winter, autumn, spring or even the hot summer, Pakistanis continue to take their evening chai dose religiously. Desi people are always ready to hear three words “it’s tea time.”
Ain’t it a good idea to have something complementary along with your “sham ki chai?” Let’s check out some amazing ideas that can make evening tea more pleasant.
Woohoo!It’s tea time-Enjoy all this with your hot cup of tea:
Let’s satisfy your taste buds and pair up something of your choice from the list along with your evening tea.
1) Pakoray Samosay:
You can have Samosas with a filling of your choice either its qeema, aaloo or even vegetables and noodles. UHH! Pakorayyy. It is the best thing that you can have with your cup of tea. And if it’s raining outside then Pakoras are a must-have! Oh ya, do not forget to add some “podinay ki chatni.”
2) Metha paratha:
Try “metha paratha” with your evening tea. It may be new for some of the people but trust me guys, you will enjoy this delicious thing.
3) Cake rusks:
For all those who want to have something in between of cake and rusks. I personally love cake rusks with chai.
4) Naan Khatai:
Most of the people do not know what Naan Khatai is. It’s actually a kind of a desi biscuit which has its origin from the subcontinent. I have not added cookies on the list because it’s a mainstream and almost all of us use to have cookies with tea. But Naan Khatai is something different. You will love them for sure especially “desi ghee wali Naan Khatai” is THE BEST! The recipe is quite simple and you can make these easily at home.
5) Namak Parray:
Hey! If it’s tea time and you are on a diet plan and you can’t have all that sugar stuff then this one is for you.
6) Jaleebi:
Again, this is my personal favorite! Enjoy the swirls of Crispy Garam Jaleebi along with your mug of tea.
7) Halwas:
Winter brings its saughat amongst which halwas are the most popular ones. It can be either Gajar ka halwa, Akhrot ka halwa, Makhadi halwa or any other halwa of your choice.
So, if it’s tea time then pick any of your favorite items from the list and have a double dose of enjoyment 😉
