    SOUTH INDIAN RASAM RECIPE

    South Indian meals (lunch, dinner, or celebration feast) are incomplete without a flavorful rasam on the menu.  Rasam podi gives a tasty flavor to the rasam. ingredients and proportions vary across regions.

    Poondu PARUPPU RASAM FOR SICK DAYS

    During sick days Paruppu rasam with garlic is good for the throat, and lots of cumin and pepper make it a natural remedy for cold. Poondu rasam, milagai kuzhambu, Milagu rasam, and marundhu kuzhambu are also my choice for sick days.

    CAN I REDUCE THE NUMBER OF TOMATOES FOR PARUPPU RASAM?

    For dal rasam, I prefer the taste of sourness from tamarind and tomatoes. If you are reducing tomatoes, adjust the amount of tamarind accordingly. For lemon flavor check out lemon rasam 

    SHOULD I USE MORTAR & PESTLE FOR RASAM? 

    Yes, it gives the best texture and taste to the rasam. If you don't have it, pulse in the mixie jar. Avoid grinding 

    CAN I INCREASE TOMATO AND REDUCE TAMARIND?

    Yes, you can adjust the ingredients according to your taste.

    SHOULD I BOIL THE RASAM FOR A LONG TIME?

    No, avoid boiling the rasam for a long time, always cook rasam on low- medium flame till you see some frothy boil.

    CAN I MAKE VEGAN THAKKALI I AM RASAM?

    Yes, skip ghee and add oil or vegan butter

    Notes

    1. Pressuring cooking tomato - tamarind is optional. To save time I prefer this method
    2. You can use tamarind paste instead of tamarind water
    3. For extra spice increase pepper
    4.  Green chili can also be used while tempering
    5. Fenugreek seed is not usually added to the rasam. Considering its health benefits i generally add
    6. turn off the rasam after seeing the froth to avoid overcooking
    7. Cook rasam in low flame for nice flavor
    8. Sambar powder can be used instead of rasam powder. Add 1/2 teaspoon of cumin+ pepper powder in that case
