Tomato Rasam

 I seem to have this urge to write down all the recipes of the things you both like. My grand mother used to be a good cook and most of the recipes, she took them to her grave. You both met her, just about briefly. 

So, I am wring down these to ensure you both have something to make, for comfort food. Currently when I make it, i add a little scrambled eggs with salt/ chili powder along with rice. You both would sit side by side on the couch and when I feed you, you both can eat bowl after bowl while watching some movies :)

In a pressure cooked, add 2 tomatoes, 1/2C water, 1 tsp each salt/rasam powder, sambar powder. cook for 4 whistles. Release pressure, mash the tomatoes using a spatula, add 2 cups of water. Thats it. If you want Tadka, just heat a tsp of oil in a separate pan, add 1/2 tsp mustard seeds (let it splutter), cumin seeds, curry leaves, a pinh of hing. add this to tomato rasam. 

Enjoy with hot rice and ghee.
