Rasam is an everyday inclusion of a wholesome midday meal. It keeps the appetite very light helping to combat the oilyness or heaviness of the previous course. There are many many versions of rasam. I have had many different kinds at many places. The taste can always be adjusted to fit to the style of any family.
