My Mom use to make rasam with this legume,Thattai Payir/Red chori bean/Karamani Payir.I like this rasam very much compared to Parauppu rasam n Tomato rasam.Rasam always a comforting south Indian recipe..no feast can be fullfilled without this simple rasam.For some days rasam alone makes my lunch a fulfilled one by the addition of legume like horsegram n Red chori beans.This is same like our regular rasam with the addition of thattai payir .Very healthy n tasty rasam...even kids will also like this rasam to have with rice or as such like a soup.Try this !!!
