Sri Lankan Fish Cutlets - Beef Smore with Mallung
To begin this meal we've got fish cutlets - essentially spicy fish cakes - served with a refreshing coconut chutney (pol sambol) and a traditional chilli sauce known as lunu miris. For the main course we've got Sri Lanka's answer to beef stew - a legacy of the European presence on the island. Cinnamon and mustard seeds are two spices that are key to the cooking of Sri Lanka and both appear here, flavouring the rich gravy the beef is cooked in. Once the beef is sealed off with the spices, it can be left bubbling away for a couple of hours creating delicious smells in your kitchen - the perfect meal for a cold winter’s evening or even a spicy alternative to a Sunday lunch!

Made the Beef Smore following the instructions but found there was nowhere near enough liquid, kept topping it up but no real rich gravy at the end. 300ml of water in total for 2 hrs gentle cooking just isn't enough. Spices give a good flavour but not enough liquid :(
Delicious and enjoyed by the whole family.
Glad to hear everyone enjoyed it! The Pol Sambol looks incredible and so refreshing!
Its very rare I say restaurant quality, because when I do It actually means something, this was unbelievable
Hooray! Glad you enjoyed it!
