Mustard seeds- 1/2 tsp
Cumin seeds- 1/3 tsp
Dry red chilly- 1
Garlic- 3 pods crushed
Curry leaves- a few

Oil - 2 tsp


 Cook dal/parippu till it is soft and mushy. Into the same pot add the chopped pineapple, chopped shallots,turmeric powder, sugar and salt. Add one cup of water and cook till soft. Add chopped tomatoes and cook for two to three minutes.
In a pan add one tsp of oil and roast all the ingredients listed under number (2) ingredients till golden brown. Make a fine paste of this and all to the cooked pineapple. Mix and add enough water to adjust consistency. Bring this to a boil and switch off the flame.
To temper heat oil in a pan and add mustard seeds and cumin seeds, when they splutter add dry red chilly, crushed garlic and curry leaves. Roast for a minute and pour over the rasam and mix. Sprinkle chopped coriander leaves and cover with a lid till it is ready to be served.
