You can purchase them or toast and grind your own spices. There are a lot of variations of both, and the flavors range from mild to spicy (we used a mild curry powder for our soup). <BR/><BR/>Rasam is a Sanskrit word that literally translates as "broth". It is usually a thin soup containing tamarind, but sometimes the tamarind is replaced with tomatoes, as it is in this recipe.<BR/><BR/>Just to confuse matters, there is a curry plant (kari plant) with sweet aromatic leaves that are used in Indian cooking, but curry powders often don't contain any curry leaves at all! Curry powders are usually a mixture of turmeric, red pepper, coriander, cumin, and other spices.Jennifershmoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08663322884550580226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16132334.post-1161386447144621442006-10-20T16:20:00.000-07:002006-10-20T16:20:00.000-07:00>>I usually leave it out, but do you recommend any...>>I usually leave it out, but do you recommend anything in it's place?<BR/><BR/>You could add some fresh parsley for color, and maybe a shot of lemon juice or zest for a bit of that tangy, clean taste. But I think it would still be fantastic even if you just left the cilantro out.Jennifershmoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08663322884550580226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16132334.post-1161314093133097992006-10-19T20:14:00.000-07:002006-10-19T20:14:00.000-07:00that bowl is happeninthat bowl is happeninKarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15951187720614194290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16132334.post-1161312400848720332006-10-19T19:46:00.000-07:002006-10-19T19:46:00.000-07:00:( I'm sorry you're not feeling well.
