Kollu Rasam / Horse gram Rasam / கொள்ளு ரசம்

Rasam / South Indian spicy soup is a tasty and easy to make dish, which is usually served along with hot rice; paired with any poriyal / veg stir fry.

In this recipe I have included nutritious legume, Kollu / Horse gram to improve the nutritive value and keeping in mind of its natural ability to generate heat in our body that is helpful in treating cold, make it perfect for this winter season!


Horse gram is known as Hurule in Kannada, Kollu in Tamil, Kulthi in Hindi, Ulavalu in Telugu and Muthira in Malayalam.

Try this to include this healthy legume in your diet for healthy living!
