Tsampa porridge

Tsampa! When the simplest is the best 💫

Tsampa is a meal made out of roasted barley flour. In Tibet they mix it with tea and butter (I can imagine your face now 🤪). I personally add it to other porridges or make it plain with a bit of butter and cinnamon. 🥣 I fell in love with Tsampa in Nepal and I simply love the smell of the barley getting roasted. 🏔️ It's super easy to prepare and there are many ways to serve it.

You just need to roast the barley on a pan, then cool it down and grind (or use a blender) to get a flour-like powder. To prepare the porridge mix it with hot water, (vegetable) milk or a combination of both and cook for a little bit, as it gets thicker and thicker. Add your favourite spices (cinnamon, cardamom), serve with roasted apple or banana and a bit of butter 😍 You will love it especially on colder days.
