INDIAN ESPRESSO COFFEE | FROTHY ESPRESSO COFFEE

coffee 1

I am a big coffee lover.. I wanted to try espresso for a long time & referred here for the recipe. I halved the quantity and tried for me alone. It was awesome , frothy , creamy , rich and lip smacking. I have never tasted such an aromatic, flavourful, tasty instant coffee. 

I have heard Cappuccino, espresso in words only. Never gotta chance to try those. But now I am happy I can make @home. So I can enjoy whenever I feel like having it. The recipe I tried is a fool proof recipe. I just increased the sugar quantity else the same.. Do try it , you’ll be addictive to its taste.

    • Gradually add more drops of water, taking care not to make the mixture thin. Beat till the mixture turns a little whitish and fluffy . (I beat the mixture for nearly 15 mins..) Initially it will be hard . But as you beat, you’ll feel the mixture becoming soft and fluffy.

Take the milk in a pan . Add water and allow it to boil.

    • When the milk water mixture boils and rises up, reduce flame and simmer for a minute ..
    • Remove from fire and pour into cups from a little height to get a frothy coffee. Stir. Sprinkle some drinking chocolate. Serve immediately. Enjoy !!

POINTS TO NOTE

  • If you wanna make two coffee with the above recipe, put half the beaten coffee in each cup in which you are going to serve.
  • I used aveon coffee powder which is coarse in texture. So it took more time to beat and become fluffy. U should beat it well till all sugar & coffee powder dissolves completely.
  • U can use any instant coffee powder. Adjust the sugar quantity as per your taste.

  1. This was our daily morning routine when we visited a friend's place for 'joint studies' in my college days ( seems so far far back). It brought back those years. You could hear the clinking of spoons as we ( about 6 of us) put all our energy to beat the coffee in the mug – the dark brown colour of coffee turns lighter as air gets incorporated which is essential for the froth.

  2. i had a friend who used to make coffee this way… it takes a lot of patience and I used to let him pamper me 🙂

  3. I tried this method but was too lazy/impatient with the beating so didn't get the lovely fluffy texture like you did… 15 mins beating huh? guess it's a good workout before drinking it 🙂 Will try next time more patiently

    Love this, reminds me of the college days n exam times where we use to make it more often. Long time since I've made it, perfect made n absolutely addictive 🙂

  5. My neighbor taught me how to make espresso coffee at home and since then I have been the espresso queen in my entire family 🙂

  6. Never knew about this way of making espresso coffee at home. So simple and results are exactly like espresso coffee we get at any coffee stand.
