Usually I make rasam using homemade rasam powder or with freshly ground instant rasam podi. But recently I got a pack of rasam powder from I-Flo brand for my review. For the first time, I tried making rasam using this store bought rasam powder. I followed the recipe given in the back of pack but made some modifications by adding crushed garlic cloves and tempering in ghee. It came out so well. I never expected it to be so flavorful and tasty just like the ones made using homemade rasam powder. In my family, Raksha gives the best feedback about rasam varieties. She loved it a lot and told me to make it again. I guess many of you especially bachelors and working women use store bought rasam powder at home to ease the job during busy morning hours. I hope this method of making with store bought rasam powder helps you make tasty and perfect rasam.

Do try this easy, yummy rasam recipe using store bought rasam powder and enjoy !
