Lemon Rasam

Rasam is usually a part of everyday lunch menu. Tangy, spicy, very light, soup style rasam is had with rice. This one is a little different version without the hassle of making tamarind juice. After having heavy, rich food continuously for 3-4 days we usually take a break by having simple rasam rice with egg bhurji or paruppu thovaiyal. It keeps us tummy feeling light and happy.


This is what u'll need....

Tomatoes 2 medium
Garlic 3 big cloves
Chilli powder 1/2 tspn
Salt to taste
Mustard 1/2 tspn
Pepper powder 1tbspn
Cumin powder 1 tbspn
Water 5-6 cups
Lemon juice 4-5 tbspn

Coriander leaves for garnish
