Seeragam Milagu Sathumadhu(rasam) or Jeera Pepper Rasam , is a spicy south Indian Sorbet that is usually taken as a detox medicine or when one is affected by cold and flu. Very simple rasam , takes about 15 minutes for the entire preparation. I'm going to show you the traditional way of cooking this rasam.

Coriander leaves
Asafoetida powder - a pinch

You could use the toor dal water for this reason, for more taste. But optional.
Add chopped tomato with tamarind water and squeeze in your hand. Add tamarind powder and keep this mix for another 15 minutes.
Heat oil in a pan and add oil. Once oil hot, add mustard seeds and urad dal.
When mustard starts splutter, add cumin seeds and crushed pepper, crushed garlic, curry leaves , red chilli, asafoetida powder and fry it.
Once the raw smell of garlic goes out add, kept tamarind, tomato water and bring it to heat.
