Ingredients

1/2 cup Tamarind, soaked and pulped (you can also try this recipe for preparing tamarind water)

1 tablespoon Cumin seeds (Jeera)

1 teaspoon Mustard seeds (Rai/ Kadugu)

1 pinch Asafoetida (hing)

12 Curry leaves

4 Dry Red Chillies

1 teaspoon Rasam Powder, or red chilly powder

2 tablespoon Jaggery, powdered

Salt, to taste

1 tablespoon Ghee

Instructions for Hunase Saaru Recipe - Mysore Style Spicy Tamarind Rasam

To begin making the Hunase Saaru Recipe or Mysore Style Spicy Tamarind Rasam first heat ghee in a kadai, to this, add mustard seeds and cumin and allow it to crackle.

Next, add asafoetida, curry leaves and red chillies and stir gently till they crisp up.

Add the prepared tamarind extract, 1.5 cups water along with the rasam powder, salt, jaggery powder and bring the whole mixture to a boil on a high heat.

Allow it to simmer for 5 to 10 mins till the quantity reduces to 3/4th its original volume. By now the tamarind will lose its raw smell and the spices will be well amalgamated.

Taste the rasam for spice, tang and sweetness levels and adjust by adding rasam powder/chilli powder or jaggery, as required.

Take it off the heat and serve hot as a drink accompanying a South Indian thali meal, or over Steamed Rice with a dollop of ghee.
