- 1 tablespoon Tamarind pulp
- 3 Tomatoes
- 1 sprig Curry leaves
- 1 tablespoon Cumin seeds

- To enhance the flavors, lightly toast the cumin seeds, peppercorns, and curry leaves before crushing. Be sure not to skip the curry leaves as they provide a distinct aroma that defines a great rasam. Letting the soup simmer gently allows the spices to blend perfectly. Enjoy freshly made rasam for the best taste and benefits.
