- 1 Cup Tsampa whole roasted and ground Barley

- 1 Cup water
- 3 Tablespoon butter
- ⅛ Teaspoon salt optional, not needed if butter is very salty

topping (not traditional)

Instructions
- In a sauce pan, stir in the tsampa ground barley. Keep the pan on a medium heat setting.
- Quickly pour in half of the milk and water. Season with salt.
- Stir and whisk the tsampa together with the salt, milk and water over a medium heat setting. Whisk to reduce and remove all lumps.
- Add butter to the pan and keep on stirring. Whisk and watch it thicken a bit.
- Pour in remaining milk and water.
- Whisk everything together to a smooth consistency without lumps. Cook down until you are satisfied with the thickness.
- Stir in sugar if you want to sweeten it a bit.
- Take from the heat and serve up.
- I topped my tsampa with more butter and some sugar granules on the pictures.

Notes
- Use only Tsampa, which is Tibetan whole grain barley that has been roasted and then ground. Do not use raw barley flour, that's not the same ingredient.
