    Instant pudhina rasam

    Rasam is an Indian soup, it is not only a tasty rice accompaniment but also the best appetizer. Instant mint rasam is super easy to make, without many ingredients rasam can be prepared within 10 minutes. Rasam is good for digestion and no dal for this quick rasam

    Can I soak and prepare tamarind extract?

    Yes, but in that case, cook tamarind water till the raw smell goes then add the ground mixture (mint, tomato, salt, and turmeric powder) and bring to a frothy boil. I have used homemade tamarind paste hence cooked everything together for froth boil

    Can I reduce tomatoes?

    For the sourness of the mint rasam, I have used more tomatoes and less tamarind paste.  If you are reducing tomatoes adjust tamarind accordingly

    Can I add cooked dal?

    Yes you can add dal but in that case, increase the rasam powder accordingly

    Can I skip garlic?

    Yes, garlic is optional but it gives a nice flavor to the rasam. I have roasted garlic but you can pulse garlic with pepper and cumin seeds like tomato rasam. If you are running out of garlic you can use garlic powder.

    Should I boil the rasam for a long time?

    No, avoid boiling the rasam for a long time, always cook rasam till you see frothy boil then turn off the stove

    Can I make vegan mint rasam?

    Yes, skip ghee and use oil for rasam. you can also use vegan butter

    How to prepare rasam without rasam powder?

    Use pepper powder, cumin powder, coriander powder, and a little  red chili powder like thakkali rasam

    Notes

    1. I have used more tomatoes and less tamarind. You can use vice versa according to your choice
    2. I have used tamarind paste, but if you are going to soak tamarind, boil tamarind water first till the raw smell goes off, then add the ground paste
    3. Sauteeing mint is optional. You can skip it if you don't like to bite mint
    4. You can skip garlic if you don't like garlic flavour
    5. Rasam tastes best with ghee. For the vegan version, you can use oil of your choice
