Sorry for not posting these many days, i have been a little busy and a lot more lazy. I have been having a busy schedule and it is hard for me to catch with blogging. I will make sure that i post more often soon.
I am sharing with you a perfect rasam that is so quick to make and comes handy whenever you have busy days which i often have. This rasam is my new addition to the rasam list which i have here.
This rasam is so simple, there is no tomato or tamarind in this recipe. The lemon juice gives the sourness which is required for this one. The crushed green chilli gives a unique taste and flavour to this. So please try this and let me know how it turned out for you.
