    What's in Sri Lankan roasted curry powder: cumin, coriander, fenugreek, turmeric, mustard seeds, cloves, peppercorns, pandan leaves, roasted curry leaves. Loads do their own versions at home. So excited you're drinking lion and eating Sri Lankan food!

      SORTED Food It's honestly pretty similar to our regular curry powder - every house has their own version of it - but it's then roasted either in a pan or in the oven. YAAY, so happy you're making Sri Lankan food! You should consider going there for Lost and Hungry. Sri Lankan food is very unique, and sadly, not too many know about it!

    Just a little handy tip: roti is traditionally made with wheat flour. So it's not very crisp but softer and less flaky.
    The curry leaves are traditionally added directly to the oil (usually the first ingredient along with mustard seeds) to get rid of the bitter leafy flavour. I usually chop up curry leaves so that each bite is moderately flavoured with the curry leaf taste!
    Also yes, you're right about the Pandan leaves in the dark roast curry powder.
    Great food you guys! :)

    Dark curry powder has pandan leaves, curry leaves, coriander seeds, cinnamon, cumin, jeera, nutmeg, black mustard seeds, cloves and cardamom...hope this helps :)

The most popular type of Kotthu is however with barbecued chicken and some cheese as well. Pillawoos classic aka Sri Lanka's version of Subway at 4AM after a night out.
    Please do some more Sri Lankan recipes - stringhoppers, hoppers, hot butter cuttlefish...so many!

    I'm glad you guys made this video.It is true that your rotti was a bit too crispy for the authentic Kottu roti like others have mentioned, but I think the crispyness gives it an interesting texture.
    The curry powder is a ground mixture of corriander,cumin,cinnamon,fennel seeds,cardomon,cloves,mustard seeds,fenugreek seeds and curry leaves, roast it and you get roasted curry powder.There are other variations as well, made by mixing curry powder with chilly powder.

    Well done guys. I can't blv I'm only now seeing this video after 3 years. I was so psyched when I saw this. I've been hoping you touch on sri Lankan food for a long time (my beautiful paradise island). Just a tip if u make this again. The godhamba doesn't get this crispy by any means. It's more of a chewy and stretchy roti. Your dough balls were too small to start off with. And there is no need to soak them in oil, just coating them with your hands with oil is more than enough and when you're stretching them out add a little oil again to your surface. Also lamb would get marinated in curd, but milk can also do the trick. And the leaves are called rampè in sri Lanka. English word is pandan leaves. There are also karapincha leaves in there. English word is curry leaves. I would say the most famous type of Kothu in sri Lanka is roast chicken kothu. If u come to sri Lanka go to pilawoos and try it.

    This is called Kothu or koththu roti is a Sri Lankan dish made from Godhamba roti and vegetables, egg and/or meat, and spices; the bread is described as similar to parotta and roti canai.

    Looks very good! Though I am not a fan of koriander. I guess you could just leave it out or replace it with a different herb?

      Brecht in sri lanka we normally don't use koriander :) you can make koththu roti with any sri lankan style curries :) and veggies,eggs and soft parata rotti :)

      You don't have to put coriander, you can add curry leaves instead, that's what we put. 😊

    Your video is amazing ....... and since you asked what's in the curry powder.......Sri Lankans use 2 types of curry powders also known as "THUNA PAHA KUDU". One is raw curry powder and the other is roasted curry powder. The raw one only has Coriander seeds, fennel and cumin seeds wich are sun dried before making the powder, and the roasted one has coriander, cumin, fennel, cardamon, fenugreek, cinnamon, curry leaves, chilies, pepper, mustard and pandan leaves. Both taste very different. And also another small use full tip for you guyz..... Sri Lankans don't use coriander leaves in our dishes.

    I don't know if this recipe is limited to sri lanka because there is a very similar recipe from my home country, Kerala (South India). It is called kothu paratha and it is really really good. Unlike this recipe, the paratha is soft and thicker than the roti in this recipe. Also, its cooked with scrambled eggs, onions, chillies, curry leaves and the meat of your choice. I love it!

    For the intro Mike tells us there is TWO OF US in the kitchen cooking but what keeps me thinking is why is it just Ben and one out of the three (Mike, Barry, and Jamie) I Challenge Mike, Barry and/or Jamie to created a Big Night In that will match or even beat Ben's level of cooking
