Andhra rasam | Andhra Style Rasam Recipe
Written by Jayashree

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Andhra rasam is popular for its exotic taste, the blend of pure spices with garlic makes all the difference.  It is a comfort food with a few papad and pickle.

Among the various kind of rasam I prepare, this is the favourite of my son. Well, frankly, I do not know, how long he shall relish it, for all things should change.  Here, the whole spices are ground with garlic and used as the basic rasam powder. Tamarind pulp is boiled and later, the cooked dal is mixed to it with adequate amount of water. This post is part of blog hop team Culinary Hoppers with the theme “Regional Cuisine”. My earlier post  is here.
