Green Mango Rasam

Please click the link above. My mango rasam follows the same spice route and procedure.
Mint is the hero in that link, but in this a raw mango is the cynosure of all eyes! I did pressure cook the diced raw mango along with the toor dal/sambhar dal. As the mango releases its own sourness, I did not add any tamarind unlike in the link above.
As the final tempering I did add more crushed garlic and pepper to add to the heat and over all composition. Owing to the dal it may almost seem like a sambhar. Please do dilute and heat the rasam as per your desire. But if one is able to appreciate it as a rasam, you can. Don't spoil it with any garnish of cilantro...the mango will lose its visibility.
This disappeared like a warm soup in our home and there is going to be a repeat of the dish soon.
I would like to let you know that I do use store bought rasam powders and this pack is not Eastern which is one of my favourites. This was Brahmins Rasam powder which I bought during my last visit to Kerala. I always eyeball my masalas and do a lot of tasting and feeling before it makes its way to the table to feed the rest of the family.
Here are the pics to lure you into making a lovely one today.
Papa, varunundo? Maangayum undu, rasavum undu...both together you have a Mango Rasam!!!
December is such a lovely month...everything I see reminds me of my father and the festive spirit of a year coming to a close.
