Notes

  1. You can substitute  star gooseberries in case you can't find normal gooseberries.
  2. I have used home made rasam powder to give some aroma and thickness to the soup.
  3. You can add green chilli if you want it spicy. I have not added.
  4. Strain the soup before serving if you wish too. I did not strain it.
