100g of caster sugar
75 cl of milk
20 cl of single cream
1 cinnamon stick
1 spoonful of vanilla extract or a vanilla pod
10g of our black tea 171 – Masala Chai
a pinch of salt
Difficulty: easy

In a saucepan, pour a litre of water with a pinch of salt and bring to the boil. Add the rice and cook it for 3 minutes before draining it. The aim is to clean the rice to remove its dust.
Pour the milk and the single cream into a saucepan. Scrape the inside of a vanilla pod and add it with the seeds to the saucepan. Add 10g of masala chai in a paper filter. Bring everything to the boil, then leave off the heat for 6 minutes.
Finally, pour the rice and the sugar into the saucepan. Cook over low heat for 30 to 40 minutes, watching and stirring from time to time. Stop cooking when the rice is well cooked and there is still a little milk left in the saucepan. Enjoy warm or cold. Sprinkle with cinnamon before serving.

4g of our 171 – Masala Chai
1 tablespoon of Calvados (optional)
10g of salted butter (for the mould)
1 sachet of vanilla sugar
Preparation: 15 min

Heat the milk (stop before boiling). Infuse the tea, previously placed in a paper filter. Leave to cool for a few moments.
In a bowl, beat the eggs with the caster sugar and the vanilla sugar using a whisk or a mixer.
Gradually add the flour and the Calvados (optional). Mix well to remove the lumps. Add the masala chai milk little by little, mixing well with the whisk. Peel the apples and cut them into pieces.
Generously butter a cake tin (or an oven dish) with the previously melted butter. Arrange the apple pieces at the bottom of the mould (cover it entirely). Gently pour the batter over the apples. Bake for 30 minutes in an oven preheated to 180°C, then sprinkle with cinnamon just before serving.
