I love rasam Raks, with garlic it would be yum to have with aloo kari. Lovely clicks. The stone mortar and pestle reminds me of ammi we use back home.

With the dal bubbles you have taken super clicks.

Lucky said...

I am an avid blog reader and so far I have not commented on anybody's blogs but you just forced me to do it today....You have such a great presentation skill, innovative thoughts to capture the readers as they read thro' your entry and most of all, recipes that helps amature folks start about with cooking without mom's help with the aid of an overseas call(a situation in which I was some 7 yrs back) as well as experienced cooks who can modify their recipes with and also learn something new. KUDOS to you for your talents!!!! I think you need to achieve much more than getting famous through blogs faceless.....

Exactly the same way we make at home except for the asofoetida. When you add garlic and asofoetida, which smell takes prominence?
