I’m unbelievably proud to announce that my Sri Lankan Roasted Curry Powder has just won 3 Stars in the Great Taste Awards 2024!

Sri Lankan Roasted Curry Powder....for those of you that don’t know…is the secret to any good Sri Lankan curry! In fact any good curry generally!

Just a few tablespoons of this powder & it will transform your curry! And this recipe is something very special...my mums very own special blend of 11 herbs & spices, roasted & ground by hand.

I entered this product in February this year having won one of the 50 places on the bursary scheme for micro producers, and never expected to win any stars let alone 3!

Just to put this in context….of the 14,000 entrants only 1.9% (266 products) received 3 stars, representing “extraordinarily tasty food and drink”.

Swipe to see the judges comments! They are so brilliant and this is all down to my mum!

I couldn’t be more proud, of my beautiful mum with her outstanding recipes that combine the old and the new of Sri Lanka, and a lot of herself! And of my heritage to this amazing country! Proving just how unique the flavours of Sri Lankan cuisine are!

Stay tuned as I have more unbelievable news coming soon re the Great Taste Awards

You can grab one of the beauties from our store or from - you might just need to be a little patient as we’re having an influx!

Fingers crossed we can see this product in a retailer very very soon!

Thank you - head to this amazing lady’s bio to read the full story
Posted • Hoppers have become an iconic symbol of Sri Lankan cuisine.

With only a handful of humble ingredients, hoppers are notoriously hard to make.

The batter needs to be perfect, and so does your cooking technique. There isn't much margin for error.

One person who has nailed this is Rosh, founder of . Like me, Rosh is Sri Lankan. And her heritage runs through her business.

Rosh has used her skills to create hopper-making kits, which makes the process so easy. It's, in fact, genius.

I wanted to explore hopper-making. To write about it and to photograph it.

Rosh let me spend time with her to understand the process and capture how they are made.

So chuffed to be featured in the Reviews section of @deliciousmag for “The best Meal Kits available for nationwide delivery right now.” And also a mention towards by hopper classes! Such an honour to be among some massive players in this list including @hopperslondon and @ricksteinrestaurants to name a few! Thanks to the brilliant @theaev for featuring my kits and attending my cooking class!

I am a proud contributor to Resilience: Recipes from the Sri Lankan Diaspora - a new downloadable cookbook compiled by @polboy.ldn featuring recipes from chefs, cooks, and restaurants representing the Sri Lankan diaspora across the UK and Australia. The cookbook is aiming to raise funds for vulnerable communities in Sri Lanka to support them during the country’s ongoing economic crisis. Recipes, whether passed down through word of mouth or written down, have been a source of resilience for diasporic communities. When adjusting to a foreign land, the ability to eat and cook food that reminds you of home can be a crucial lifeline. Right now, it is the people on the island of Sri Lanka who are in need of a lifeline. We hope to harness the spirit of resilience through the recipes held onto by the diaspora to generate funds that hopefully provide relief and support to ordinary Sri Lankans who have shown resilience against all odds during an unprecedented economic crisis. 100% of the profit made from sales of the cookbook will go to @communitymealsharetrust. Community Meal Share is a collective that aspires to bridge the gap between the privileged and underprivileged in Sri Lanka. If you are able to contribute, please donate using the link in bio and you will receive a copy of the e-cookbook to your chosen email address.
