Notes

Keep the rasam powder container closed nicely so that the flavors are intact and transfer a little from it to a small airtight container and use from it!fill it up then and there.
Can change the amount of chillies added according to your taste.
As we add kollu to it the taste is so nice and aromatic.
I have used garlic powder you can add garlic cloves instead after roasting it.
