The food in Sri Lanka is amazing! Some of the staples used in Sri Lankan cuisine are coconut, jackfruit, spices and seafood. Speciality dishes include fish curry, chicken kottu roti, hoppers (pancakes) and pol sambal (a kind of coconut relish).
Vegetarians also have plenty of tasty savoury options in Sri Lanka, like vegetarian curries and the lentil-based masoor dal.
A must when in Sri Lanka is visiting one of the heavenly smelling bread vans and tasting some of their treats!
