      Rasam is one of my favourite soups. I've forgotten pineapple rasam, thanks for reminding. I could cook all of your recipes, they are very similar to what we eat daily regarding spicing and simplicity. I'm bad in reading and following blogs, so I'm happy you led me here. I will bookmark your blog.
