Tomato Rasam



It has been very long since i posted here. I wanted to post one of my favorite and it was a rainy day. What other dish will be appropriate other than our very own Rasam....

Hot rice, Rasam with vendaka poriyal are deadly combination. Rasam sadam is my favourite next to vetha kuzhambhu. Nothing can beat hot rasam with vendaka poriyal.
