ABOUT Choley Rasam RECIPE

When we boil choley sometimes we are left with the water in which the choley had cooked. It has all the goodness of the choley and if we are unable to use it then all that goes to waste. But now no more because we can turn it into a tangy rasam. This fusion recipe was created by my grandmother and at home we actually add extra water while boiling choley in order to make this rasam.
