Rice and curry is the staple dish of Sri Lanka. The curry can be made with chicken, beetroot, pumpkin, potato, jackfruit, or Dahl.

Hoppers are Sri Lankans’ take on pancakes with crispy edges. They are thin bowl-shaped pancakes made of fermented rice flour, coconut water, and coconut milk. The batter is fried in a small wok to give pancakes their ideal shape.

It’s almost the same as a pancake, but it has an egg in the middle of it. It’s the perfect healthy breakfast you can have in Sri Lanka.
