I (slightly) adapted this recipe from a book by Charmaine Solomon and have been cooking it for approx 18 years. I often add various veg (we like small eggplants and okra), if I do I add another tin of chopped tomatoes to make more sauce. Goes very well withSri Lankan Yellow Rice (Kaha Bath) recipe number 268510. Originally the recipe serves 2-4 however if you add the optional veg and tomatoes then it stretches to about 6 depending on how much extra you add :)
