Mor rasam, is a simple rasam made in just 5 minutes with minimum ingredients. This rasam is made with butter milk. I have heard about this easy rasam from many friends, but never tried or tasted it anywhere. Recently my friend’s mom gave me this recipe and told that she makes this quite often. As the rasam has ajwain | omam as one of the ingredient, it is perfect for winter. I tried this last week and was totally addicted to the taste and simplicity of the rasam. Try out this simple and easy mor rasam recipe and let me know how you liked this.

In our home we call this as omam mor kuzhambu and make it with the same ingredients but little thicker like our regular mor kuzhambu..we grind the curd+besan mixture with green chillies by adding required water and boil till frothy and then add the tempering..
That's nice, will try this once. Thanks for sharing.
Hi jeyashri i Would like to share a variation. My mom used to make this and a super hit always.
To roast : 2 teaspoonful pepper
2 teaspoonful coriander seeds
2 red chillies
1.5 teaspoonful Kadalai Paruppu
Roast till golden brown and add 1 teaspoon of unroasted jeera and grind coarsely
Butter milk should be sour and should be of medium consistency ( not too watery and not too thick). Add Salt beat well and mix the powder to it. We do not add turmeric.
