Rasam without rasam powder

 

This is a famous Rasam recipe in our family loved by all age groups. An authentic rasam recipe without using rasam powder. When we start giving rice to a child, this rasam is what is mixed along with cooked Toor dal and mixed with rice. This has its own flavour unlike the regular rasams. This can be had like a soup, as a side dish to Dosa and one of the main dish with cooked rice.
