Prep Time: 3 Minutes
Cook Time: 5–7 Minutes
Total Time: 8–10 Minutes
Ingredients
- 1 cup low-fat milk
- 1 inch fresh turmeric (haldi), grated
- 1 tsp honey (add after cooling slightly)
Step-by-Step Method
Step 1: Heat the Milk
Pour milk into a small saucepan and heat it on low to medium flame. Do not let it boil too aggressively.
Step 2: Add Fresh Turmeric
Add freshly grated turmeric to the warm milk. Stir well so the colour and flavour infuse evenly.
Step 3: Simmer Gently
Let the mixture simmer for 3–5 minutes on low heat so the turmeric blends into the milk and releases its natural benefits.
Step 4: Strain (Optional)
If you prefer a smooth drink, strain the milk to remove turmeric pieces.
Step 5: Add Honey
Allow the milk to cool slightly (lukewarm). Add honey and mix well.
Step 6: Serve Warm
Pour into a cup and enjoy warm, comforting golden milk
