Recipes from Sri Lanka

Hi everyone,

Hope you've all been cooking up a storm, question is - where's all the photographic evidence? Get snapping and show-off your creations, even if just to satisfy my curiosity!

Not to brag/labour the point/make anyone jealous, but I have just come back from a fantastic holiday in Sri Lanka. And especially for Recipe Zoners I invited myself into the kitchen of one of the places we were staying at to 'help', but mainly to get the inside scoop on how they cook up their tasty cuisine.

Sri Lankan cooking is big on coconut (it also forms the basis of their favourite spirit Arrak), and coconut sambal became one of my staples. Usually served up as a side dish to pretty much everything, this is a dry and spicy coconut based delight, looking something like this:

Here's the recipe.

Enjoy!
