Hope you remember the Paruppu Keerai Kootu (dal curry) that I posted last month with manathakkali keerai sukuti keerai night shade greens/solanum nigrum . The same day I made this healthy rasam/soup with the addition of greens in our usual paruppu/dal rasam. My Kids love rasam but I make once in a week. Whenever I think to add healthy stuffs in their food some new ideas rise, that’s the reason behind the invention of this herbal soup also it tastes too good. Can finish your lunch with rice, this rasam and papad on lazy days 🙂
