Chettinad Cauliflower Rasam / Cauliflower Soup

This rasam is full of flavour with crunchy cauliflower and spices with the mild touch of coconut milk in it!   I learnt to make this rasam / soup from my mom.

She used to prepare this cauliflower rasam with rice accompanied by spicy potato fry, which is a comforting simple meal,liked by all in the family. Whenever I prepare this my childhood memory comes back to me.
