This rasam is mostly made for "Srardhams" at homes..because, normally we do not like to use sambar powder or rasam powder...prefer to make things fresh and use...and also, after a wedding or a heavy meal, when you want something to aid easy digestion, this rasam is very apt, just like Pepper rasam and Jeera rasam..of course, there are various rasams....Lemon rasam,,  Kandanthippili rasam
Tomato/soupy rasam, Lemon mysore rasam, Paruppu urundai rasam, Drumstick rasam,
Paruppu rasam, Goddu rasam, Pineapple rasam,  and Veppampoo rasam
