Instructions

1. Prepare Carrots and Tomatoes

   Peel the carrots, cut them into small chunks. Remove the white pith and seeds from the tomatoes, then quarter them.

   Time: PT10M

2. Pressure Cook

   Place the carrot pieces and tomato quarters into the pressure cooker, add 1 cup of water, close the lid and cook on high heat until 1–2 whistles.

   Time: PT15M

   Temperature: high heat

3. Grind Spice Mix

   While the cooker is working, add 4 garlic cloves, 1/2 tsp black peppercorns, 1/2 tsp cumin seeds, 1 tsp coriander seeds, and 2 dried red chilies to a small mixer jar. Pulse until coarsely ground; a fine powder is not needed.

   Time: PT5M

4. Mash Cooked Vegetables

   Release the pressure, open the cooker, and using a masher, crush the softened carrots and tomatoes into a smooth paste.

   Time: PT5M

5. Prepare Tamarind Extract

   Soak the lemon‑size tamarind ball in 1 cup warm water for 5 minutes, then squeeze to extract the pulp and discard the fibers.

   Time: PT5M

6. Combine and Simmer

   Transfer the mashed carrot‑tomato mixture to a saucepan. Add the tamarind extract, remaining 3 cups water, 1/4 tsp turmeric, salt to taste, and the ground spice mix from step 3. Bring to a gentle boil, then simmer for 5–10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

   Time: PT10M

   Temperature: medium heat

7. Prepare Tempering (Tadka)

   In a small pan, heat 1 tbsp oil over medium heat. Add 1 tsp mustard seeds, 1 tsp cumin seeds, 1/2 tsp fenugreek seeds, 2 broken dried red chilies, 6 curry leaves, and a pinch of asafoetida. Fry until the mustard seeds crackle and the spices turn aromatic (about 1–2 minutes).

   Time: PT3M

   Temperature: medium heat

8. Finish the Rasam

   Pour the hot tempering into the simmering soup, stir in the chopped coriander leaves, and let the rasam sit off‑heat for a couple of minutes to meld flavors.

   Time: PT2M
