Kaha bath is Sri Lanka’s celebration rice served during festivities. It’s turmeric-gold, fragrant with whole spices and coconut milk. Serve it alongside the black chicken curry with a bowl of pol sambol and you have the full Sri Lankan experience — golden rice, near-black curry and white sambol; gentle warmth, deep intensity and bright. heat.

Egg hoppers with coconut sambol are a classic Sri Lankan dish. They’re rich in healthy medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), which provide a quick source of energy to support brain function and metabolism. Coconut also contains fibre and lauric acid, which can help support immunity and heart health.
