Rasam is a soup like Indian food item. It is made out of tamarind juice, cumin, pepper powders with or without tomatoes. Lemon juice can be added and also little ginger if we want. It is very good for health, digestion. After recovery from illness like cold, fever, when doctor prescribes give light food, we take rasam mixed with white rice. This can be taken as soup for appetite. To start solid food to children, usually we give rasam rice to children with little ghee added to the rice. 90% of Indians are fans of this food item and a function is not complete without Rasam rice. Have you tasted it? Do you like it? If not tasted, please learn through internet, make (easy to make) and I am sure you will become fan of it. Please try and tell friend whether you liked the taste.

I have never tried it before but I will definitely look it up as it sounds very nice.

My favourite indian food at the moment is lamb biryani - I get it every time I go to an indian restuarant, then I love naan bread plain and garkic, I also like chapati (roti) and then my next best is chicken korma - all delicious.

Vav, all good items you are selecting and eating. Then do not leave Rasam. This will do away all the collastral and gas formation in the stomach and will increase appetite.

I am not sure if I've tried this specifically, but my husband does cook a lot of indian food. Neither of us are from India, we just really like eating a number of different types of food from all over the world.


myLot reputation of 99/100. Buchi_bulla (2370)   ranked 26 out of 2,735 in eating food  3 months ago

When you are making rasam, the whole house smells good. You have to add rasam powder also for that which you will get in market. Try in Indian markets. Or see internet and you yourself can grind it at home.

I love to eat rasam every day in my dinner.
I finish my dinner while ending up with rasam


myLot reputation of 99/100. Buchi_bulla (2370)   ranked 26 out of 2,735 in eating food  3 months ago

If I have to eat only rasam rice everyday, I do not mind at all. It is my all time favourite.

The westeners call it Pepper Water... As Rasam is tangy and healthy, it is liked by all with rice or without rice. It goes very well with alchoholic Drinks. After heavy meals cup of rasam will ease the digestive process. Of various rasams like Tamarind, tomoto, Pepper, vegetable,etc... I like the Dall rasam verymuch.


myLot reputation of 99/100. Buchi_bulla (2370)   ranked 26 out of 2,735 in eating food  3 months ago

There are umpteen number of rasams that we can make. When we have stomach upset, we make only cumin and pepper powder rasam. Otherwise dal rasam with tomato.

rasam tastes good u can add katpuravalli thalai to it good for cold we take when we have cold


myLot reputation of 99/100. Buchi_bulla (2370)   ranked 26 out of 2,735 in eating food  3 months ago

Yes. It is good to add karpuravalli thazhai (Aaku in telugu and leaf in English). That takes away the flem from our body. Thanks for adding the point.

Hi Buchi_bulla,


I like rasam. It is very good for digestion. I know different methods of preparing rasam. Now the ready-made rasam powder is also available in market. So it is easy to prepare rasam with the same but I do not prefer it. I like to prepare by adding natural ingredients. happy


myLot reputation of 99/100. Buchi_bulla (2370)   ranked 26 out of 2,735 in eating food  3 months ago

You must be expert in Rasam making. Even I prepare different rasams depending upon the necessity like fever, stomach problem, festival, gas problem etc. Want to taste rasam made by you. I am mad after rasam.

I never tasted Rasam, what kind is it? I want to try it, but I just don't know can you show me the picture.


myLot reputation of 99/100. Buchi_bulla (2370)   ranked 26 out of 2,735 in eating food  3 months ago

It is a soup like liquid item made out of turmeric, pepper and cumin seeds, rasam powder which can be either made at home or purchased outside. See the image.

I have not tried that but it does sound good and very healthy. I will have to learn how to make that. I am teaching myself how to make lots of different kinds of Indian foods. I like to learn how to cook foods from different countries, Indian food is the food I am concentrating on now. My family loves it. There is even an Indian restaurant sort of close to my house and we go there often and one of our friends owns an Indian restaurant but it is a bit of a drive. But I will definately see if I can find tamarind juice so that I can learn how to make this.


myLot reputation of 99/100. Buchi_bulla (2370)   ranked 26 out of 2,735 in eating food  3 months ago

Do not you get tamarind in your place? Soak lemon size tamarind for four people and extract juice. Buy rasam powder in Indian market. Otherwise go to internet, lots of sites have rasam recipe. Try. Best of luck.
