Paruppu Rasam, also known as Dal Rasam, is a comforting and flavorful soup made with lentils, tamarind, and spices. It is a staple dish in South Indian households and is usually served with rice and a side of vegetables. The addition of cooked lentils gives this rasam a creamy texture and makes it a wholesome meal. The aromatic flavors of spices like cumin, pepper, and coriander seeds make this rasam a true delight.
