Sharing with you another simple version of a rasam variety. If you don't have stock of rasam powder don't worry, just follow the procedure below.
Rasam tastes different when the procedure, ingredients and combinations, cooking chemistry varies. so you can present the dish with same name with a new twist in taste & look.
I prepare this specially for my FIL who has chewing problem. So I cook the tomatoes along with dhal (so that portein intake is also taken care of) and grind it to nice paste & prepare the rasam.
Don't think the list is too...oo long. they are the basic masala powders that you will be having in the kitchen. If not then go ahead and add some sambar powder. Rasam will still taste divine and different!
