Sri Lanka: The Cookbook

Product Information

Mallum, also mallung, are dishes of dry fried vegetables, spices, and coconut that are finished with a sprinkling of fresh lime juice. There are five mallung recipes in this cookbook, of which I prepared pol mallung and Kale mallung. The former is predominantly coconut, with a slew of spices up it. The latter is comprised of finely shredded kale and, yes, more spices. This is the first time in history my partner has declared a kale dish something he would like to eat a second time.

The book amply proves that Dalmatia’s edible spoils easily match those of its more acclaimed neighbours. Something for everyone. JapanEasy

Venture into the yummy world of Sri Lankan cooking with Emily Dobbs’ Weligama Recipes from Sri Lanka. The cookbook allows you to explore the diverse flavors, textures, and spices of Sri Lanka. The author guides you through the process of making authentic and vibrant dishes. Below, a string hopper (indiappa) stir fry. String hoppers are (not insects as I initially thought!) noodles made from rice flour which is then steamed. They are a popular breakfast item in Sri Lanka, and in this recipe, they are stir-fried with vegetables and meat to make a hearty dish. Dalmatia sits on a thin strip in the midsection of Croatia’s glittering Adriatic coast. The cuisine of this hospitable country, where the definition of catastrophe is not having enough food to serve to guests – is largely undiscovered. Yet it is likely to feel familiar, you’ll find all the hallmarks of the Med – fish and seafood, tomatoes and olives – but with some twists – the many cultures that have passed through left an indelible culinary handprint. So in the north you’ve dairy, dumplings, meaty stews and strudels from Germany and central Europe, but there are also risottos from Italy, and Mediterranean, Turkish, Greek and even Arab influences in the south based around fish, vegetables and spices. Plus the region benefits from the viticulture learned from the ancient Greeks and Romans.

Handmade‘ is a book written by 34 women of Sri Lanka and produced by Palmera — a for-purpose organisation. The goal of the organisation is to create a world where no one is left out. By supporting businesses established by rural entrepreneurs and feeding those who struggle to feed themselves, Palmera is making a difference, one life at a time. They say love conquers all and in Sri Lanka: the Cookbook, husband and wife duo Prakash Sivanathan and Niranjala Ellawala’s love for their homeland cuisine shines. Simple yet spectacular is how you can describe these women and their journey, their food captures the hardships faced and the simple pleasures one can cherish by sharing a meal with their loved ones. The aubergine and tamarind curry that is Kathirikai pirattal is not entirely dissimilar to meen kulambu, only it is marginally more sour from extra tamarind and with a less punchy spice combination. There are two preparation options for the eggplant: one to pan fry and the other to bake. I adjusted the preparation slightly by roasting the aubergine at maximum heat to extract the vegetable's signature smokiness brought out by this method. That charred flavour is an excellent contrast to the tangy fullness of tamarind and coconut milk in this dish.
