We often congregate around food and it is an important part of the Sri Lankan identity. So, this month we decided to briefly summarise the origins of some Lankan foods we all cherish.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">According to academics and chefs, the community whose culinary impact on Sri Lanka was most pronounced were the Portuguese community of Sri Lanka.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.latimes.com\/food\/story\/2022-12-15\/sri-lankan-northridge-baja-sub-review\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-118970 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ca-times.brightspotcdn.com\/dims4\/default\/fbf98e0\/2147483647\/strip\/true\/crop\/2000x1333+0+0\/resize\/2000x1333!\/format\/webp\/quality\/80\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcalifornia-times-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2F00%2Fd1%2F117cbcca42c78f252022f628cb53%2F1224657-fo-baja-sub-northridge-lkp-025.jpg\" alt=\"Where Does Sri Lankan Food Come From - By Randika Jayakody &amp; Jerome Perera\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/magnificentsrilanka.com\/traditional-food-items-in-sinhala-tamil-new-year\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-118970 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/magnificentsrilanka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/avurudu-1.jpg?resize=1536%2C1026&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"Where Does Sri Lankan Food Come From - By Randika Jayakody &amp; Jerome Perera\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Portuguese nuns immensely contributed to cooking by introducing the holy trinity of oil, onions and garlic and the \u201cthemperaadu\u201d technique, which precedes the cooking of many dishes. Cutlets, empanadas, viticulture, the use of vinegar for cooking and preservation (Vinagre became the Sinhala word Vinaakiri). Buns, breads, baked goods such as seenakku, wiskirinja, puhul dosi, custard and cheese (still called Keju in Sri Lanka after the Portuguese word Queijo). The introduction of chilies and a range of produce through the Columbian Exchange are also Portuguese contribution to Lankan food. Regional specialties such as Love cake, Christmas cake, istu (bistek) and pork curries are lingering reminders of the Portuguese contribution to Lankan food.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Dutch Ceylon facilitated food exchange between the Netherlands, its empire and Sri Lanka. Lamprais is a popular example of the confluence of Dutch, Indonesian and Sri Lankan influences. Then there is ginger beer, milk wine, fruit wines, kopi as well as iced kopi. Dutch Christmas delights such as the Breudher (still traditionally eaten with cheese) and other specialties such as Frikkadels, Perkedels and Kokis<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">are now part of regular Lankan fare.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">From Nasi goreng and Mie goreng to Kue Lapis, Malay communities introduced several dishes to Sri Lanka including Dodol, seri kaya, sambals, pickles, and watallappan. A huge amount of Sri Lankan food is undeniably influenced by the historical Southern Indian region. These influences include Kavum, mung kavum, hoppers, string hoppers, appa, indiyappa, achcharus, rotis, pittu, parathas, sambars, dosa, rasam and a range of fried foods.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Then there is aasmi, aggala, mung kavum among a plethora of sweetmeats. Even the venerated Kothu appears to originate in historical Southern India. Research indicates Wanniyala-Aeththo have farmed Kurakkan since time immemorial. Along with the Sri Lankan fondness for game meats like wild boar, deer, and game birds, Kurakkan rotis and kurakkan thalapa represent the oldest types of food cooked in Sri Lanka.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">English candies, Vicks, hacks, biscuit puddings, and the ubiquitous style of tea drinking in Sri Lanka (with milk and biscuits) as well as staples such as Marmite, jams and dining habits all remind us of the<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">long and storied connection between the British isles and our own.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">The ancient Middle East has also contributed to Sri Lankan food history. Persian foods such as Falooda enjoyed throughout coastal Sri Lanka, Saruwath and Muscat remind one of the Persian, Moorish, Arab, and Turkik influences on Lankan food. So what is the Sri Lankan food that we all love and cherish? It is the result of millennia of multicultural gastronomic layering.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">If you want to learn more, please visit our Youtube channel Mathaya Project and follow us on Facebook at Mathaya Project.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Randika Jayakody &amp; Jerome Perera<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<em><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Among Randika and Jerome\u2019s many interests is a deep<\/span><\/em><br \/>\n<em><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">passion to understand Sri Lankan history and culture. <\/span><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Where Does Sri Lankan Food Come From? &#8211; By Randika Jayakody &amp; Jerome Perera Source :\u00a0 Qld Sri Lankan Newsletter \u2013 D\u00e6h\u00e6na \u2013 August 2023 The Sri Lankan diaspora is famous for its food.
