Rasam idli



This is again a South Indian recipe that is usually prepared at home. However, I have eaten it in New woodlands hotel in Chennai. It tasted divine. Just like rasa vadai, here soft idlis are soaked in hot rasam. It tastes great on any day and particularly during summer. It is a big bet for diet watchers too as it is light on the stomache and calories. 
Leftover idlis prepared for breakfast can be soaked in rasam and can be had as evening snack.

Ingredients:

Idli or mini idli - few
Tomato rasam - 1 bowl
Onion or boondi for garnishing (optional)

Method:

Take a soup bowl. Fill it with little rasam. Slowly glide hot idlis into it. Close it with a lid. Soak for 5 minutes. Open and add more rasam till the brim of the bowl. Serve it alone or garnished with onion or boondi.  

Note:

Idli can be soaked in any rasam.
