Paruppu Rasam Lentil Rasam Video Recipe

Paruppu Rasam Lentil Rasam Video Recipe
Paruppu Rasam

My daughter when she started her solid food, I mash the rice with this paruppu rasam and sat her in high chair this is how she started eating by herself when she was under 1 year. Dal or Lentil rasam makes the rasam thick and tasty. We never mind

if our menu don’t have sambar on Paruppu rasam making day. Yeah just lentil rasam, with one poriyal (stir fry) and rice makes a comfort lunch, do you agree? It was the time were rasam was mandatory at home everyday when my kids were infants and toddlers. Now they have grown up and still this Lentil Rasam is one among their favorite rasam. Not only them its our entire family favorite as well 🙂

Some special days like festival or on any family event I make sambar and that day or next day Paruppu Rasam will be in our menu since I use the dal cooked water and some mashed dal without fail to make rasam. Yes you can either refrigerate or freeze the dal cooked water for later use. Do check more trending and popular rasam recipes HERE.

Rasam Recipes

Paruppu Rasam Preparation

  • Rinse, Soak and pressure cook the dal.
  • When you make sambar do reserve few tbsp of cooked dal for making rasam.
  • If the dal is not mushy (Pic 6) do grind along with “To grind” ingredients for rasam.
  • Extract tamarind juice by soaking tamarind (Pic 1) in hot water for 15 minutes.
  • Filter the tamarind juice (Pic 2), add cooked dal+ water to it (Pic 3&6) and chop the raw tomato (Pic 5) and add to it.
  • The hot dal water cook the tomato so let it sit like that for few minutes (Pic 6).
  • Grind the ingredients given for grinding (pic 4) with tomato skin and cooked dal (Pic 7) to smooth paste (Pic 8).
  • Heat Oil in a wide pan, add mustard seeds when it splutters do add ground rasam paste (Pic 9), Turmeric powder, Hing, Curry Leaves, Green Chili and Salt.
  • In the video I skipped chilis since Whole pepper (milagu) spice is enough for us sometime.
  • Saute well till oil separates from the mixture (Pic 10).
  • Now add tamarind dal water mixture (Pic 11), adjust salt, if the rasam is tangy then add more water.
  • If the tanginess is low then adjust with tamarind water.
  • Mix everything well and let it heat up.
  • When rasam starts foaming remove from heat (pic 12), garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve hot.

Notes

  • Toor dal/ Masoor dal (Red lentil) both are fine to make this rasam.
  • My MIL add coriander powder and methi seeds powder in rasam for flavor. I have mentioned it in the optional list do try with those and let me know how you liked it.
  • Some may use tamarind and some may not (same with tomato) so you can use either one for this recipe or use lemon.
