Mysore rasam is one of the flavourful and refreshing rasams of the many varieties of rasam we make.As we all know rasam is served as the second course in the south indian menu next to sambhar.Unlike other rasams this one is a bit thicker and richer because of the spices roasted and grounded,mixed and simmered to perfection.I usually make it for dinner as an accompaniment with rice and serve with fried papads/applams.Piping hot rasam with steamed rice with dollops of homemade ghee is truly divine to eat.It is a normal practice to make this rasam during functions and festivities but...
We make numerous breakfast recipes,different lunch varieties yet we are always on the look out for accompaniments to those dishes.Iam afraid we all experience this,if we don't have a good side dish the main dish cannot be enjoyed to its full relishment.Tomato chutney is one such side dish which can not only be made in a jiffy,it can be stored for 2-3 days when made properly.I was thinking something new to eat with dosa and was wondering what to do so this recipe i dug out from an old cookbook at home.One good thing about this recipe is that it...
