Well this is a new favourite. Don't delay, put it on your list. Whether you are vegetarian/vegan or not, this is a killer curry that has all the elements you would expect of a great curry without the meat. The Chonkk (or flavoured oil for tempering the curry) with it's crispy curry leaves, is a must and is a common practice throughout India and Sri Lanka. We certainly love it.
