Made this today. Such a lovely dish! So it will be little watery right ? Just wanted to confirm if it had turned out properly. And yesterday was your vendaya rasam. That was our family's favorite and somehow Amma had lost that recipe and for years she hadn't made it. It like finding it again and the whole family enjoyed every little drop of it! Thanks a lot Sangeeta for the wonderful recipes!
