Instant Thengai paal rasam

Rasam is an Indian soup; it is not only a tasty rice accompaniment but also the best appetizer. Thengai paal rasam is super easy to make, the best home remedy for mouth ulcers/ common cold.  No dal South Indian rasam variety can be prepared within 10 minutes.

Can I use regular tamarind instead of homemade tamarind paste?

Yes, since I had homemade paste, I used it, but you can soak small gooseberry-sized tamarind in hot water and extract the water. To speed up the process, you can even microwave the tamarind + water for one minute.

Do I need this many tomatoes for the South Indian rasam recipe?

I have added more tomatoes and less tamarind paste. If you like tamarind sourness, adjust the tomatoes accordingly

Can I add dal for thengai paal rasam?

Yes, you can add dal, but in that case, increase the spice powders accordingly

Can I skip garlic?

Yes, garlic is optional, but it gives a nice flavor to the rasam. I prefer grating garlic. Instead, you can pulse garlic or use garlic powder.

Will the rasam taste spicy?

No coconut milk gives mild sweetness to the rasam, so it needs extra spice to balance out the flavor. Adjust the spice according to your  taste  https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3zYDDQHDMStAA4y3sISuQIYxaDBHtHbx

Should I boil the rasam after adding coconut milk?

No, avoid boiling the rasam after adding coconut milk. Simmer the flame and cook for 1 minute. Boiling the rasam might cause it to curdle.

Can I use ghee for coconut rasam?

Yes, you can add ghee instead of coconut milk. Coconut oil complements the coconut milk flavor, hence  I prefer using it for my vegan Indian soup recipe

Notes

  1. I have used more tomatoes and less tamarind paste. If you are increasing tamarind, reduce tomatoes accordingly
  2. Always add coconut milk after the raw tamarind smell goes off. Since I used homemade tamarind paste raw smell went off soon
  3. Coconut milk has a mild sweetness so adjust the spice accordingly
  4. Avoid boiling rasam after adding coconut milk, rasam might curdle
