To begin making the Kollu Rasam Recipe, first soak the Kollu (horse gram) for 4 hours or overnight.
Once it is well soaked, add 1/4 cup of water and cook it in the pressure cooker for 6 whistles. Turn the heat to low and simmer for another 15 minutes and turn of the heat. Allow the pressure to release naturally.

Adjust the consistency of the horse gram rasam by adding more water if required.
Check the salt and seasonings at this stage and adjust to taste accordingly.
While the Kollu Rasam is simmering, we will proceed to make the seasoning
Heat ghee in a small pan; add in the mustard seeds and allow it to crackle. Next add in the crushed garlic cloves and stir for a few seconds until you smell the aromas.
Finally add in the curry leaves and turn off the heat and add the seasoning to the horse gram rasam. Transfer the Kollu Rasam into a serving bowl and serve hot.
