A roti bowl is a hand made roti filled with delicious things. On Saturday 6th we have a fragrant ginger and tamarind chicken headlining. For our non meatisaurs, we have a new dish of shredded jackfruit, cooked slowly in coconut and vinegar, until the sauce has reduced and clings to the jackfruit, it's creamy and has a lovely little sour hit. Both these are served on a bed of carrot sambol salad, with a spicy pineapple salsa and finished with a little coconut yoghurt sauce. A real feast for the senses! 😋

Making food is easy, follow a recipe or watch a video, simple right? Go one step further and cook with attention, love the food you are preparing, be passionate about the quality of your ingredients, think about the people you are cooking for and their tastes or tweak your recipes to suit your own tastes, understand how to get the best out of spices and release their flavours. Take time to savour the smells of your food cooking. At a Curry Pincher cookery experience we help you to really enjoy cooking by understanding and appreciating the food you are creating. We introduce you to new ingredients and take the mystery out of things you might not normally cook with. From the basics of chopping and slicing all the way up to tempering, flatbreads, and complex curries our cookery experience covers it all and you get a delicious breakfast served on arrival and lunch! And don't forget the doggy bags to take home with all your yummy food to share with family and friends!

Tea is very important to Sri Lanka, it's a main export crop, and a lot of tea is sent to the UK. Most tea estates sell their tea to auction houses. It is then bought by tea companies, and sold on to the consumer. We're currently at the Labookellie Tea Factory, and enjoying learning more about the production process. Did you know that fresh tea is ready to drink in 1 day? That's only 24 hours from the tea bush to the cup! We love serving our cookery experience guests Sri Lankan tea with breakfast, the fragrance and flavour are different to a standard tea bag cuppa and really adds something special to the breakfast meal.
