Pineapple rasam is mainly served in South Indian Weddings and some times at Hotel Saravana Bhavan most of the days they serve Mysore rasam.
I love the aroma n flavors of this rasam. But never prepared this at home. The full pineapple which i picked up from the store made me crave for some tangy spicy pineapple rasam which would be perfect with some hot rice for lunch. Since it's been pouring so heavily for last couple of days.

It is ages since I have taken this rasam.The feasts in the modern day marriages have undergone sea changes that traditional items are conspicuous by their absence.
