Rasam is a liquid curry which prepared with mushy lentil and lots of
spices, it’s a very popular part of meal in south family which serve with rice
or as a hot bowl of soup which is very good for digestion, as south tradition
look like a liquid transparent spicy soup. But under the Apple Rasam, we
combine apple with mushy lentil, tomato plus spices and serve with steam
rice.

This recipe is taken from “My Cooking Journey” blog; I love the version
of apple in this rasam recipe. It is eaten with rice or separately as soup. In a
traditional meal, it is preceded by a sambar rice course and is followed by curd rice. Rasam has a distinct taste
in comparison to the sambar due to its own seasoning ingredients and is usually
fluid in consistency.

Hi preeti,
Thanks for linking your Apple rasam and labra recipe, but I think it doesn't fall in my event, "spotlight : One pot meal"…as we are looking for a meal which is cooked in one pot only, like Khichdi with vegetables type of dish, where rice, dal, vegetable or chicken cooked in one pot…yours is a side dish, not one pot meal..hope u understand, I'll delete from my collection..please submit such recipe which falls in that category, thanks
