Idli-Rasam

This is the same Rava Idli, or South Indian steamed dumpling, as 2 posts ago, and from the same batter as that of another post. (Please see that post for more details, if you like.) This Rasam is a South Indian soup-like dish, based on tomatoes. The simple Rasam was easy to prepare, and very cheerful in the cold and snowy weather. 

The Tomato Rasam recipe is from Healthy South Indian Cooking by Alemalu Vairavan and Patricia Marquardt.
