The Curry Pincher

The Curry Pincher Sri Lankan Street Food for pop-ups, markets and festivals and private catering. Private cookery lessons launching January 2025

What can I say about me... well I started cooking when I was very young, in fact I think I first learnt to cook rice and dhal when I was about 6 in miniature clay pots someone bought me as a gift, on a fire in the garden. Both my parents were Dutch Sri Lankan and both were prolific cooks. Not a day went by without one or other of them cooking up something experimental or traditional (and of course

spending a lot of time telling the other one what they could do better!). I have long held a dream of starting a food business but it was not until late last year that I found myself in the position of being able to do so and it took quite some months of thought and encouragement to get here. The name "The Curry Pincher" is derived from the Sri Lankan word for curry leaves, "Karapincha". My food is personal to me, and I'm really looking forward to sharing that with you.

A tale of two fish curries. The first is a tilapia curry which is rich with coconut milk and layered spicing. The second is a sour curry made with king fish, this is sharp with tamarind and hot with chilli. And the perfect partner to both is a raw mango salad. I’m loving my test kitchen cooking for private events, learning so much with each and every new dish that I create. Sublime pairings are what Sri Lankan food is all about, finding the balance between all the strong flavours is a journey, the end result is truly the most delicious thing you’ve ever tasted.

It’s test kitchen time again, and today we’re being creative with jackfruit! These little babies are going to be making an appearance at my next pop up. They’re a little on the spicy side but if Mr Curry Pincher can eat them then so can you, and trust me, they are too good to miss.
