kalyana rasam - iyengar kalyana rasam - Iyengar Rasam - No Tamarind recipe - No onion and garlic recipe

**Most of the time I make rasam with Rasam podi / rasa powder. If I want to make only rasam for lunch then I make Mysore Rasam. Except for Lemon rasam and Ginger rasam I use tamarind. Last time my helper had swollen legs and she visited an Ayurvedic doctor and he suggested to have food without tamarind she got this recipe from her mum. Later I saw similar recipes from other blogs. Only difference is the masala powder in this, it had rice and I know my mum does use rice while grinding rasam powder. So I have decided to go ahead with her recipe. She normally adds 3 pods of garlic. But I wanted to make this no onion and no garlic recipe so I didn't add if you want go ahead and add
