Orange Rasam
I love rasam its a must in my family. I easily get bored with the regular rasam so I always try to spice it up with new variety.I learned this Orange Rasam long back from a cookbook from Aval Vigaten that published 30 Variety Rasam, and have saved the book till now. I love the variation in them. I have Pineapple rasam, Kollu rasam, Paruppu rasam, Udupi rasam, Lemon rasam and lots more. Please check them and try it at home.Most of them I learned from mom and few from experiments but they all come out excellent. You will love it for sure. Now off to this rasam.
