Masala Chai Coconuts Bagle

I had 1 month holiday during Christmas and New Years. I had trip to Bangkok, Vietnam, Cambodia and Nepal.

It was interesting that they have own tea, coffee and food culture.  I get lots of spices, tea leaves and coffee beans in each country.

Nepal has similar culture with India, but different.
I got tea masala spice in Nepal. That makes masala chai tea in Nepal and India,


Masala means '' mixture of spices ''  in Hindi.

My masala spice is mixture of ginger, cloves, cardamon, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, star anise.

I made bagels with masala spice. I added tea and milk to make chai flavor.
And I added coconuts  thread.

I made 6 small one, dividing the dough into 80g each.
The recipe is making 5 bagels, dividing the dough into 100g each.

My breakfast!!!


It was yuumy with butter and honey ; )
