Kukul Mas with Seeni Sambol and Cucumber Salad ~ Cajun Jambalaya with Hot Sauce
Kukul Mas with Seeni Sambol and Cucumber Salad:
In Sri Lanka chicken curries are known as kukul mas. Hundreds of different versions exist, each with their own specific blend of spices which are usually very darkly roasted to give a delicious, deep and complex flavour. Key spices in Sri Lankan cuisine include cinnamon, curry leaves, mustard seeds, chilli and lemongrass, an ingredient more commonly associated with Southeast Asian cuisine. On the side of the chicken curry we've got a fiery seeni sambol and a cooling cucumber salad.
Cajun Jambalaya with Hot Sauce:
This classic American dish originated in Louisiana during Spanish rule, and it’s easy to see how it might have started off life as a local version of Valencian paella. Over time, ingredients from the Caribbean and Latin America crept in and the rich, smoky, spicy modern jambalaya was born. It’s served with Louisiana hot sauce, made with smoky chipotle chillies, which adds a lovely bright heat to the meal.

Not enough chicken in the fridge so added a Carrot and some baby corn. I don't do fresh Coriander so used cooked leeks in the salad. The light fresh salad and hot Seeni Sambol added to the joyous Kukul Mas. The box arrived yesterday, had to cook today. All gone!!!!!!
The Sri Lankan chicken curry is quite possibly the best curry I've ever eaten. As soon as the spices hit the hot oil in the pan, it took me back to getting into Colombo at the start of my cricket tour and all of the street smells there. The jambalaya is also excellent. I add quite a bit more coconut cream to the curry as it's really quite spicy if you use the quantity suggested by the recipe.
Fantastic! It's so wonderful when certain aromas immediately transport you to great memories of places visited- glad you really enjoyed this!
