Vepampoo Rasam Recipe
Vepampoo raam (Neem flower rasam)is a must one in the Tamil new year recipe menu. My mom just add ghee roasted vepampoo in the usual tomato rasam but my mil makes a simple vepampoo rasam without any dal. In my in laws place we make Vepampoo rasam once in 2 weeks during weekends. After coming here, i never made as i didn’t find neem flowers here. Few weeks back, Raks shared with me a good amount of vepampoo (dried neem flowers) and i made this vepampoo rasam . So i am sharing the recipe of vepampoo rasam.
Instructions
  1. In a pan, add ghee and roast the neem flowers. Roast till they become golden colour and be careful not to burn it.
  2. Keep it aside.
  3. In the same pan, add oil mustard seeds and add the red chiili and toor dal.when the dal changes color add the tamarind water , turmeric powder,salt and asafoetida.
  4. Let this boil in a medium flame for few minutes.(7-9 minutes)
  5. Add the jaggery(powdered)
  6. Switch off the flame and add the roasted neem flowers.
Recipe Notes

Do not boil the rasam after adding the neem flowers.
