Discover Sri Lankan cuisine — rice and curry, pol sambol, hoppers, kottu roti, and bold coconut-and-spice island cooking.
1 recipes
Sri Lankan cuisine is distinct from Indian cooking: fiercely spiced, coconut-rich island food built on Maldive fish, pandan (rampe), curry leaves, goraka (gamboge), and roasted curry powder. Hoppers (appa), string hoppers, kottu roti, and the rice-and-curry spread anchor the canon. Tamil and Sinhalese traditions both contribute.
