Fruity coriander rasam



My mind constantly craves new twists to my day to day activities in kitchen. I had a friend coming over for lunch and it was cold too. Along with a rawa dosa, hot rasam seemed a perfect match. But run of the mill rasam wasn’t a very exciting thought. Saw oranges and then an apple...voila...a great rasam that was amazing in taste and very different too. Perfect. 

INGREDIENTS

2 chopped sweet and sour apples 

2 oranges segmented 

1 green chilli 

3-4 cloves garlic 

1/2 tsp grated ginger 

Few curry leaves 

1/4 cup coriander leaves 

1/4 tsp haldi

1/4 tsp cumin 

Pepper crushed as per taste 

Pinch of hing

1/2 tsp dhaniya powder 

1 tsp ready made rasam powder( optional) 

1 tsp ghee 

Lemon juice 

1/4 tsp mustard seeds


METHOD

1. Put all ingredients except ghee, mustard seeds, lemon and curry leaves in a pot and pressure cook. 

2. Once cooked well, blend well. 

3. Heat ghee, add mustard seeds and curry leaves and let them splutter. 

4. Pour into the rasam, heat through. 

5. Squeeze lemon juice and garnish with green coriander leaves and serve hot. 

6. Enjoy with any meal as a great palate cleanser and nutritious drink. Good way to use the left over fruits.
