CHAI OATMEAL

Serves 2

1/2 cup soy milk
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons honey
2 cinnamon sticks
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, freshly ground
1 star anise
5 to 8 green cardamom pods, unopened
1 cup whole rolled oats

1. In a 1-quart saucepan over medium heat, combine 1 cup water, the milks, honey, cinnamon, nutmeg, star anise and cardamom; turn off heat and steep for 10 minutes.
2. Strain out the spices, then return the milk to the same pot. Add oats; bring to a simmer over medium heat.
3. Reduce heat to low; cover loosely. Cook without stirring for about 10 minutes, or until the oatmeal thickens to desired consistency. Serve with milk and sweetener of choice, if desired.
