Gooseberry rasam / Nellikai rasam in Tamil / Amla rasam is an interesting and healthy rasam recipe. Recent days I am trying to include gooseberry in my cooking regularly as its rich in Vitamin C and helps to boost immunity. Usually I make nellikai thayir pachadi and nellikai thogayal. I don’t want to include gooseberry in pickle form considering its oil and salt. So when I was looking for some interesting gooseberry recipes, I came across this nellikai rasam recipe.
I had some pressure cooked gooseberry in hand. So I used that and tried this rasam recipe. Even though its my first attempt, rasam came out so well. Its easy to prepare too. Friends, do try this gooseberry rasam for a change. You will love it like me.
