Pineapple Rasam| Pineapple Recipes

Pineapple with rasam is really amazing
combination, I love to explore different kinds of flavors and taste in
different cuisines. I have available pineapple at home in big amount, so this
time I tried or use pineapple in rasam as pineapple flavour. It gives sweet and
tangy punch to regular rasam and makes healthier. You can serve rasam with
individual meal or with rice and papad as side dish. It’s a perfect dish for
winter or monsoon season. For this recipe, you have to cook pineapple and tomatoes
along with cooked toor dal and homemade rasam powder.

There are load of vitamins and minerals
in pineapples like full of vitamin A, C, fibre, potassium, phosphorus and
calcium. Pineapple are rich in Vitamin C which fight against viruses and
infections, good for cold and cough attacks and help you recover quickly.
Pineapples are anti-oxidants also, so save you from many diseases like atherosclerosis,
heart diseases, arthritis, various cancers etc.
