Rice and curry

We went for lunch at one of Mali's friend today in the suburb of Colombo and we took pictures of the food as this was a superb example of a typical Sri Lankan Rice and Curry meal: A big pot of rice (in this case with cashew nuts) in the centre and a multitude of curries: cashew nut curry, dal, stuffed capsicums, fish balls, fish curry, tomato and chive salad, mango chutney, mint salad, etc, etc. Each meal is different as different vegetable curries are made. And before you ask, yes we have put on weight since we are in Sri Lanka, hence why there is no pictures of us anymore on the blog ;-).

And fresh tropical fruits for dessert: watermelons, papaye, Mangosteen (and mum you can see how they look inside as they were half opened for us) and mangoes.
