thuthuvalai rasam recipe

Thuthuvalai rasam recipe – A simple rasam/ soup recipe with the medicinal herb called thuthuvalai or solanum Tribolium. It is widely used in south India as a home remedy to treat cough, cold and fever.

We usually make a paste of the leaves and give it on an empty stomach as soon as we identify the kids with fever or cold. To make this, pluck the leaves, wash and clean it well. remove thorns if any. saute it in a pan until it shrinks.

Add turmeric powder and pepper powder along with the sauteed leaves and grind it to a paste. Extract the juice which will be approximately 1 tbsp. drink the juice immediately.

Apart from kollu rasam and thuvayal, one of the remedies which are tried is thuthuvalai rasam. It can be with or without dal which is as per your preference.
