Preparing tea.
文化背景
Tea is the default drink. If you visit a house, you will be asked for tea before water. It's usually served with 'palaharam' (snacks) like banana fritters. Famous for 'Sulaimani' (spiced black tea). Making Sulaimani is a specific skill often mentioned in movies like 'Ustad Hotel'. The 'Chayakkada' is a male-dominated social space where people read newspapers and discuss politics for hours over a single cup. Tea is now being replaced by 'specialty teas' in cafes, but the phrase 'Chaya undakkuka' remains the domestic standard.

The Tea Offer
