Paruppu Rasam, also known as Dal Rasam, is a comforting and flavorful soup made with lentils, tamarind, and a blend of spices. It is a popular dish in South India and is often served with rice or enjoyed as a soup. To make Paruppu Rasam, you will need ingredients like toor dal (pigeon peas), tamarind pulp, rasam powder, turmeric powder, and curry leaves. The lentils are cooked and mashed to create a thick and creamy base for the rasam. The tamarind adds a tangy flavor, while the spices give the rasam its aromatic taste. The rasam is then tempered with ghee, mustard seeds, and curry leaves to enhance the flavors. Paruppu Rasam is a comforting and nutritious dish that is perfect for a wholesome meal.
