A frothy cup of coffee...
Servings 1
Ingredients
- 1 cup milk
- 1 tsp coffee I used Nescafe Gold
- 1 tsp sugar as per taste
Instructions
- Heat the milk and continue till it comes to a rolling boil.
- Meanwhile, in your mug, add the coffee and sugar.
- Drop in a couple of drops of hot water, just enough to moisten the coffee.
- With the back of a spoon, start whipping in with full strength. You will start seeing the concoction turn from a dark brown mixture to a creamy mixture and it will double in volume.
- Keep whipping till your hands ache, or if you are using the Ikea milk frother, then nothing like it! The more you whip, the frothier coffee you get!
- Once the milk boils and froths, switch off the flame and pour into the frothy coffee mixture from a height. Give it a mild stir and enjoy!
Notes
You can use full fat milk for a richer coffee for sure!
Do not add more water than two to three drops. I heat little water in the microwave and then drip it into the coffee and sugar, just enough to wet it.
I have seen some recipe adding cream. If you wish, you can top your coffee with whipped cream and to make it extra decadent, some chocolate sauce as well! Since I have enough to my waist line, I would avoid them! ;)
