What it is

777 has roots going back to 1933, when brothers R.S. Narayanasamy Iyer and R.S. Ganapathy Iyer opened Hotel Sri Rama Bhavan on Thambu Chetty Street in Madras. Thakkali rasam is the thin, tangy tomato rasam that comes between sambar and curd rice at a South Indian lunch.

The paste has the rasam base ready, so the whole job takes five minutes: water, a gentle boil and a tempering. It is softer and tangier than a pepper rasam. Choosing between 777 rasam pastes? Tomato for mild and tangy; Pepper for a sharper milagu rasam; Garlic for poondu rasam.

Tip: Throw in a handful of chopped coriander just as it froths, then take it straight off the heat.

Goes well with: Udhaiyam Toor Dal, Heera Curry Leaves, 777 Appalam Dia 4" No 3
