      Is it fresh coconut that you have added? I do need to try this. We keep making rasam regularly at home.

      Nothing like making rasam with fresh powder and for South Indians, Rasam cures basically all ailments (atleast thats what we are fed since childhood - haha). Loved your version of Rasam and all I can think of is a bowl of steamed rice, appalam and laddles of this piping hot rasam on top of it. I am sorted for life!
