Lemon Rasam generally prepared using toor dhal and tomatoes. My easy to make version is so easy and is normally ready in minutes. At home everyone likes this version than the original version.This rasam comes in handy when you are running out of time. Especially if you have prepared a nutritious Stir fry/ Porial/ Thoran/Kootu, this is the best easy to prepare curry combination.
Goes well with all dry curries. Curry will look watery though i do not add any thing to thicken the curry but still is flavourful and tasty. Try this someday when you are really running out of time. No soaking, no pressure. I'm sure you are going to love this ....

Turmeric- ¼ teaspoon
