Sri Lankan Chicken Curry

Sri Lankan Chicken Curry

Chicken curry can be made in so many different ways, even in Sri Lankan cuisine. It all depends on what sort of herbs and spices we use. This is my own simple recipe, without onion and coconut milk. I hope you all enjoy it!

  1. Hi, I am Burgher from Sri Lanka.
    From a very early age, my parents emigrated to the UK where I did all my growing up.
    However that said, my Mother and older siblings continued to enjoy all the Sri Lankan dishes that were prepared, cooked and enjoyed through the generations.
    I would like to try your recipes, namely the Sri Lankan Chicken Curry, the Vegetarian Biryani, the Potato Curry vegetable and the Ash Plantain and Brinjal recipes, but unfortunately you have not mentioned the servings?
    Please can you kindly do this for me.
    Many thanks and best regards

    • Story for late reply. 500g meat or fish curry you can serve ten people.
      500g rice when you cook you can serve between eight to ten people too.
