I am sure that Chicken
Lovers will never say "No" to this Flavorful Rasam . This is completely my
innovation which I tried very long back and got posted in an online magazine “Channel
6 “.
Am a big fan of “Peter Kuruvita” a well known srilankan chef and never miss his television shows. I
love his style of preparing stock with fresh chillies, curry leaves etc and adding it
to the curry. And that inspiration, made me to try this delicious chicken rasam. Poaching
eggs in a simmering rasam will enhance the taste of rasam and eggs. This can be
served with hot Rice and chicken gravy.
Try this flavorful Rasam instead of the regular ones and enjoy your meal.
