I love the flavor of South Indian cuisine and rasam is one of the essential side dish of South Indian cuisine. Rasam is basically a South Indian soup which prepared with tamarind juice and tomatoes. You can serve rasam with rice as complete meal. This time I tried to made rasam powder at home. It gives a fresh and wonderful aroma to the rasam. Making this spice at home is quite simple and instant. For this recipe, you have to roast the whole spices, grind and keep store in airtight jar for making rasam. Roast the each of the spices listed till they turn aromatic. Rasam is good to improve digestive complaints and immune functions.
