Pineapple Rasam in Ipot

Ever since I was gifted the Ipot, I am enjoying preparing a whole bunch of things with it. Also it is such a blessing to work with. I see there is magic happening when you prepare rasam with it. Rasam with rice is the most comforting food for me. There are so many varieties of rasam out there and they are all equally comforting. Pineapple rasam is the one that I prepare often. I love the marriage of sweetness of pineapple, sourness from the tomato and the spices make it a perfect. Here is how I made it using the Ipot. Managed to get a photo before it disappeared.
