'' Tomato Rasam'' made with Everest Rasam Masala

Posted Sep 13 2008 11:45pm


Rasam, (Tamil: ரச‌ம், Rasam; Kannada: Saaru; Telugu: Chaaru ) is a South Indian soup. It is prepared with tamarind juice or tomato, pepper and other spices. Lentils are added by some along with vegetable.

It is had along with rice or by itself. In a traditional meal, it follows the sambar course and is followed by curd rice. It differs from sambar in that it usually relies on tomatoes for its sourness rather than tamarind, and it is usually much thinner.

These days Rasam comes in many 'avtaars' from the traditional Lemon Rasam and Tomato Rasam to the more adventurous Garlic and even Pineapple Rasam. Fortunately,the basic recipe remains the same.

EVEREST Rasam Powder, a chilli -coriander-cumin based blend - assures you of authenicRasam every time.
