Blackeyes peas Rasam/Alasande Rasam

Alasandekaalu is black eye peas. The stew of black eye peas is used to prepare the rasam or curry. The stew is boiled with tomato puree, spices and garlic to get a fantastic rasam or soup or curry. The rasam is added to the Rice and the boiled black eye peas is made as sundal/ Usali. The combination of three makes a perfect lunch or dinner.This is one of my favorite, hope you all like it once you prepare.
