Rasam Powder Making Made Easier

Rasam powder is now commercially available . It is an important powder not only for making rasam easily but also in other indian

recipes such as gojju, puli ogray, and gojju avval.. Here is an easy way to make rasam powder easily .. this is my own recipe ..

hope it works well for you .. The ingredients - 2 measures red chilly peices, 1 measure dhaniya seeds, 1 measure jeera ( cummin

seeds ), one measure yellow mustard seeds ( menthem), 2 measures of curry leaves ( karepak / kare pattha ), 1 teaspoon of hing, 1

teaspoon of haldi ( turmeric powder ).. Take all in a kadai ( except the hing and the haldi ) and roast on a low flame till the chillies

and curry leaves get crispy .. be sure to uniformly roast all .. then add the hing and the haldi.. wait to cool to room temperature and

grind ..
Note: Chillies can be very hot or not so hot ..so you need to find out the correct amount of chillies to add by trials on a small batch

first and either increase or decrease the proportion according to taste..

Thanks for the info. But I wonder how come there are no videos for making sambar powder?

[oldernwiser0]

i have posted two varieties of 'sambhars', viz, kolambu and nalgari which are both the types of sambhar that are in use here ... just see if they could be of use ? cheers ! :-)

HI, Thank you very much for sharing the recipe. I am looking forward to making it. But I am unable to figure out what is the ratio of Hing with other ingredients. All other ingredients you mention one "measure", but for Haldi and Hing you use one Tea-spoon.

thank you for pointing this out; in this case one measure is 50 ml by volume, i go by volumes only as a matter of practise.. hope this clarifies and am sure you would be able to make a great rasam powder ...all the best .. cheers !:-)

it is very easy to make, much cheaper than commercial ones and you can control the taste according to your own likes .. and it is fascinating to learn that a slight change in the roasting or grinding can make a big difference in the outcome of the rasam ! am sure you will enjoy this ... cheers ! :-)
