If you have not had a cherry rasam yet, you must certainly put it on the list of things to make, try sooner than later - It is incredibly tasty - seriously - the sweet& tart flavors of the cherry combined with the aromatic flavors of our rasam powder, freshly ground coriander and black peppers, slightly roasted coconut sends this rasam to a whole new level as rasams go.
The recipe
Ingredients
1 cup of cherries
2 tsp of Rasam powder
5 cups of water
1tso each of coriander seeds, grated coconut, cumin, black pepper
2 red chilies (optional)
salt to taste
butter/mustard seeds/ cumin seeds/ cilantro/curry leaves to temper
Preparation
Bring the cherries to boil in the water -
In the meantime, roast the dry condiments, grind with a tad bit of water
Add the rasam powder along with the condiments and spin it too
Now add this to the boiling cherries
Add salt
At this point I just filtered most of the cherries, ground them up and added them back to the rasam -leaving a few to bite into like we do tomatoes
Taste to see if it has the tartness you desire or if it is too sweet --Either ways a tsp of lemon after it has been removed from the stove is an option - i had no need to do that.
Pour rasam into serving dish
Temper the mustards cumin and the curry leaves and add to the rasam -
add finely chopped cilantro for garnish
Serve HOT as a soup or with rice and pappad and a delicious veggie on the side :)
