Raw Mango Rasam

#mania - This is a typical South Indian style soup / rasam that is a must-have in the menu. There are many versions to this amazingly refreshing soup. So let me share rasam made with raw mango. It is quite a comforting dish that can be had as it is like a soup or as a side dish with plain steamed rice.
