Chettinad Kozhi Rasam (Chettinad Chicken Rasam)

Rasam, though spicy is an excellent home remedy for common cold.  It's very spicy and hot and most often, the cold says 'Bye-bye' the very next day.

By way of making the chicken rasam, is definitely a one of a kind. To be honest, I made chicken soup the day before, and I had lots of left over. So, I decided to innovate and create it to another dish. I looked through teh net to get the ingredients and tried out my own way. Mind you, this is not the classic method of making this dish.



Ingredients:
Left over soup (hahaha)
To grind ( 1 tablespoon of black pepper, 1 tablespoon of cumin, 1/2 tablespoon of fennel seed, 1 tablespoon of coriander, 3 cloves of garlic and 2 pcs of dried chillies) - dry grind
To fry - curry leaves, onion
Tomato
I tablespoon of tuneric and 1 tablespoon of chilly powder


Serve these piping hot, with steamed rice. Yep, pour the rasam over hot, hot rice and enjoy it with the varuval. No fun eating it cold. Everything has to be piping hot! You'll work out a sweat! The menu for the day was Chicken Rasam, Chicken Kicap(in Soya Sauce) and Brocolli & Mushroom.
