Must Try Foods in Sri Lanka

[abjktu]

Most yeah but few are not the same

Like Kokis, Murukku and especially the Sour fish curry (Ambul Thiyal) which is distinctively Sri Lankan.. South coast to be precise

yeah..Murukku is there in Tamilnadu and Karnataka...our achappam looks exactly like that of your kokis..
what 'Thiyal' stands for??

 

[Gibbs]

small error...

watalappam-vattappam...

Whoah.. mate.. Wattalappam is a MALAY (South East Asia) inspired desert not a Malayalam one

Just looked it up mate.. Completely different dishes.. Though they sound similar

You had already stolen our appam and idiappam..now looking for our porotta??

It's all common stuff, I see you even claimed dosai, and potato curry I let that go no

SL do have Murukku but it's completely different to what Pani walalu which is what Shredder posted.. Kokis is a dutch inspired savoury biscuit (Sinhalized Cookies) and Ambul Thiyal is quite distinctive to the Kerala sour fish curry.. Ambul Thiyal is a dry curry.. I'm not sure about it's meaning of Thiyal though

Also your Paal Kanji is a broth or cereal similar to the Kenda is SL.. On the contrary Kiri Buth or Milk rice are rice cakes.. So there are quite differences there
