Sri Lankan Curry
So how did this Sri Lankan Curry Blend come into my world - and now yours?
A customer contacted me and said she and her husband had eaten an incredible curry while in Sri Lanka. She then bought a packet of the spice blend before she finished her holiday, came home, cooked it up and then couldn’t find the blend here in Australia. She brought me the empty packet and I went to work translating ingredients and then experimenting with amounts until I got it right. She and her husband loved it and I hope you do too!
PS: This is her recipe ❤️
