India is the second largest tea producer in the world after China. Unsurprisingly, Indians consume over 80 per cent of the tea India produces. This data speaks for itself about how much we Indians love our tea. From an octogenarian to a young child of the family, all sip on tea either in the morning, evening or during both times of the day.

As most chai lovers in the country would agree, tea isn’t just a beverage, it’s an emotion. To elevate the experience of enjoying tea, we often pair it up with a myriad of chai-combos.

Bun-maska dipped in chai transports one to a state of complete bliss the moment the tea-dipped buttery bun melts in the mouth. The same is true with biting into crispy matri which when sipped with masala chai pleases the senses due to a blend of this combo’s sweet and salty taste.

Each one picks their favourite chai-combos that best pleases their taste palate, be it Vada Pav, Kanda Bhajjiya, Fafda, Samosa, Ajwain Paratha, or even a plain chapati. If you are a chai lover who loves to make sipping tea a splendid affair, we bring you recipes of delectable snacking items that you can pair with your tea.

Samosa Pinwheel
This dish was created keeping a smaller format of samosa in mind. With the current trend of portion control, samosa pinwheel satisfies the craving by just eating a single piece. Its uniqueness is in the way it is rolled and served with chutneys on top. “Crispy covering with a soft spicy tangy filling paired with piping hot masala chai is a match made in heaven,” says Chef Hiren.

Boiled potato - 200 gm
Chaat masala - 10 gm
Samosa sheets - 100 gm
Salt - 5 gm
Pepper - 5 gm
Ajwain - 2 gm
Hing or Asafoetida - 1 gm
Whole coriander seeds - 5 gm
