ReplyDeletehi
ReplyDeletei tried this rasam sterday...really it tastes excellent and with very nice pepper aroma...usually i add tomatoes but sterday i followed ur recipe..thanx for sharing...i love ur presentation n pictures,which makes the readers to make a attempt...very talented.
nice one!
ReplyDeleteDon't we need to add water in this.. ?
how the curry is made from ?
Hi tamarind extract means it is with water, we have to add the needed water in the extract.
ReplyDeleteVery simple & good recipe.... Trying now to see if it helps my cold..
ReplyDeleteUsing garlic with skin ON, brings back memories of Amma's way of making rasam :-)
I tried this two times...my husband loved it but we felt there was a slight bitter taste..(sendhu taste as we say it in tamil). What could be the reason for it? where am I making a mistake?
ReplyDeleteTry balancing it with more tamarind or red chilli. Not sure, will ask mom and update if something
