Kottu roti

	One of the most common and popular fast foods in Sri Lanka, kottu roti is a stir fried dish of godamba roti (a griddle cooked flat-bread, very similar to a paratha), with assorted vegetables, and sometimes egg or bits of leftover chicken meat. The dish is lightly spiced on it's own, but also commonly served with a few spoonfuls of curry sauce to moisten the mixture and add extra kick.
I served mine alongside a chicken curry (whose recipe I posted yesterday), and made good use of the extra curry sauce!

Sri Lankan chicken curry

I'm not much of an expert on Sri Lankan food (or knowledgeable at all, really!). I'm still a novice when it comes to cooking dishes from this region, but my first attempt at cooking a Sri Lankan chicken curry turned out pretty nice. I served it alongside kottu roti (stir fried bread and vegetables, recipe to follow), which tends to be served on it's own as a tasty fast food meal. But I was greedy to try both!

Sri Lankan egg curry

	This curry, adapted from a recipe by Peter Kuruvita, won't win any beauty contests but it tastes absolutely sublime. Pictured: Sri Lankan egg curry (right), beetroot curry (left) and cucumber curry (top). You can find the recipes for the beet and cucumber curry, plus Peter's original recipe for authentic egg curry, in his cookbook Serendip.
