    Kollu Rasam Recipe

    This is one rasam which i make often, because it is like two in one..Whenever i make this rasam, i don't have to worry about making side dishes. Because i used the horse gram cooking liquid(which is so healthy) for making this rasam and use the cooked horse gram to make this delicious sundal and serve it with rice. This is what i call a proper lunch.
