👩‍🍳 How to make Panjim Cafà Breakfast

  1. Brew coffee (8 mins, medium heat): Percolate or boil strong Goan coffee — use generous 2 tsp coffee per cup. Add chicory for authentic flavour. Strain.
  2. Froth milk (3 mins, medium heat): Heat milk separately until steaming, pour from height into coffee for natural froth.
  3. Warm bread: Warm poi on tava with thin film of butter.
  4. Serve: Buttered poi with guava jam alongside milky coffee. Classic Panjim morning.

📖 Cultural notes

Old Panjim cafés like Café Central and Vihar (now heritage spots) have served this exact breakfast for generations — the guava jam is often homemade by Goan households from their garden trees. ---
