Pepper-Garlic Rasam

My craze to Rasam started just a year back. and its because of this rasam recipe. a simple rasam without any rasam powder. This will make you feel fresh and its very good for digestion and for cold.


so if any rasam haters reading this, try this. sure you will like it.




Ingredients for Pepper-Garlic Rasam:

Pepper- 10 corns
Garlic-5 cloves
Cumin- 1 tsp
Ghee- 1/4 tsp
Turmeric powder- a pinch
Tomato-1
Water- 1 and half a cup

Method:

arrow_42 Crush the pepper, garlic and cumin in a mixer grinder, without adding water.
arrow_42 Cut the Tomato into 4 pieces and put to the mixer along with the crushed and hold the pulse button for a second. (Tomato should not grinded into paste. it should be minced).
arrow_42 In a kadai, add ghee and heat it. add cumin seeds and roast it.
arrow_42 Now add the crushed pepper-garlic-cumin-tomato minces into the kadai.(Dont miss to smell the nice aroma).

  4. Love the simplicity in the ingredients. Will try it out. I am not a big fan of rasam. I understand you were too until a year back. Rasam features only on our festival menu.
