In Serendip, Peter Kuruvita, acclaimed chef from Flying Fish in Sydney, takes us on a rich and rewarding journey through the traditional cuisine of Sri Lanka, its culture of family and ceremony, and the colourful approach to life on this beautiful island nation.
Offering Sri Lankan curries of every kind as well as traditional snacks, breads, sticky sweet treats, and recipes for curry powders, chutneys, sambals and pickles, Serendip is a treasury of delicious and flavoursome dishes.
Dishes include lime pickle, coconut sambal, kiri hoddy, beef curry, squid curry, fish cutlets, egg hoppers, sambar, love cake, wood apple ice cream.
Peter's evocative and sometimes hilarious anecdotes ensue that Serendip serves up a feast for heart and soul as well as for the body. |
