Having to stay at home has become inevitable due to the tragic Covid-19 pandemic that has affected us all.
However, rather than letting boredom and negativity get the best of us, even those of us who aren’t the keenest cooks, could attempt in giving our untested cooking skills a shot. Here’s a list on some famous authentic Sri Lankan recipes that Aunty D has made much simpler for all of us.

Easy Lankan Potato Curry (Ala Curry)
Potatoes… they are fantastic in whatever form they are cooked in. As much as we believe that Sri Lankan food is known for its amazing spices, Sri Lankan recipes are not always spicy. This is not only a very frequent dish for Rice and Curry, but it also works perfectly with string hoppers.

Cabbage Mallum
Doesn’t sound tempting enough? Aunty D has some tricks up her sleeve to make it as appealing as it can get.
Beef Black Pepper Curry
Who can say no to a mouth-watering sizzling black beef curry? This is an ideal dish to put together if you’re working on the clock or in a hurry. Don’t miss out! Relish the advantage of Sri Lankan dishes where we get to use our spices in different forms to obtain various outcomes.
