Dry roast pepper, garlic, and dry red chillies, then crush them with a mortar and pestle. Next, sauté the spice mixture with crushed ginger, shallots, tomatoes, and turmeric in oil inside a pressure cooker. Add water, bone-in chicken, and salt, then pressure cook for about four whistles until the chicken is tender. Finally, separate the meat from the bones and serve it over steamed rice with the warm rasam broth poured on top.
The recipe calls for 250 grams of bone-in chicken, a 1-inch piece of ginger, 1 teaspoon each of cumin and pepper, 4 to 5 garlic cloves with skin, 2 dry red chillies, fresh coriander, 4 to 5 sprigs of coriander stems, 10 shallots, 2 small tomatoes, half a teaspoon of turmeric powder, 1 to 2 teaspoons of oil, salt, water as required, and steamed rice.
