    Hi Padhu, I have been following your blog for some time now. Wanted to share a small tip – if you find it useful. Excess water from pressure cooking chickpeas, chowli, mung can actually make good rasam and soup. It is also healthy. For eg., the excess water while preparing chickpea sundal can be kept aside, add a bit of tamarind, rasam powder and boil – similar to tomato rasam. Add a bit of sugar and salt to taste. end with a seasoning of mustard seeds, curry leaves and hing in ghee.
