Mango rasam is one of my favorites during summer, it tastes tangy, sweet, mild spicy from tadka. This is one of those recipes even the picky eaters will love to eat. This south Indian delicacy usually served along with some rice. Rasam tastes best when chilled for an hour or else prepare rasam with chilled water. Mango rasam also called mango charu.
