Poondu Rasam (Garlic Rasam)
The most suitable Rasam for a cold winter or rainy day filled with the flavours of garlic, pepper and cumin seeds. Since garlic is very good for health, we make this Garlic Rasam atleast once in a week or ten days. We don't usually add garlic in all rasam varieities. This rasam gives a wonderful taste and aroma when had with hot rice and a teaspoon of ghee. Or sip a cup of this tangy and spicy rasam like soup...
