If you love a spicy curry, then Sri Lankan cuisine should be on your food-bucket list. The cuisine revolves around rice, coconut and spices, the diverse dishes have been shaped by Sri Lanka’s history with the Indian, Dutch and Indonesian traders. Sri Lankan cuisine is believed to be of the most complex in South Asia. The national cuisine is steamed or boiled rice served with curries, featuring a heavy emphasis on fish, beef, pork, chicken, and mutton, with native coconut found in just about every curry.

Fun fact: Sri Lankan cuisine is considered one of the spiciest on Earth. But no fear, restaurants are likely to cater to more inexperienced tongues, producing dishes that are much milder than those which are cooked in a Sri Lankan home but just as delicious! 

Popular dishes

Hoppers

Hoppers (aka Appam) are thin, slightly sour (and often bowl-shaped) pancakes once described by a famous Indian chef as the lovechild of a crêpe and a crumpet. You get a real contrast of textures with a crispy outside leading into a spongy and deliciously absorbent centre. They’re made from a fermented batter of rice flour and coconut milk – then pan-fried or steamed. Choose between Savoury Hoppers (think a mix of Red Onions & Spices or Tomato Curry, Fiery Coconut Relish aka Sambals & a Whole Egg baked into the base) or you can opt for Sweet Hoppers (think Curd aka Fresh Yogurt & Sri Lankan Treacle which is Coconut Palm Syrup, or even Nutella). Eat them with your hands, order them with your Menulog app.

Kevum

Sri Lankan Sweets are hugely irresistible (and thanks to the Menulog app, hugely accessible). Kevum is popular dessert in Sri Lanka, it’s a rich Oil Cake made with rice flour and Treacle, then fried to a delicious golden brown. There are lots of variations of Kevum, all worth a try – like Moong Kevum, where a Mung Bean flour paste is shaped into diamonds before frying. Bibikkan is another cake-like sweet, which originated from coastal regions, and is made from Grated Coconut, Coconut Treacle and wheat flour. And Kokis is a savoury-crispy-biscuity-like dish made from rice flour and coco-milk. They’re nuts about coconuts. Tap your Menulog app to find out why.
