PEPPER RASAM | MILAGU RASAM RECIPE|PATHIYA SAMAYAL RECIPES

After all the festival food i wanted to make something very simple today and it was heavily raining from the morning so i made this simple pepper rasam |milagu rasam with a beans curry for lunch and suresh too joined me for this simple lunch and we both enjoyed this simple food a lot. Nothing can beat a simple milagu rasam , my mom makes this when we have cold or cough and a simple food for postpartum delivery too. Even bachelors can try this milagu rasam as this doesn’t requires any grinding too. So after this navaratri, i wanted to try something without any dal and this milagu rasam doesnt need dal too.
