KOTTU


What are the varieties of kottu?

This is one of the specific food in Sri Lanka. This item is made in almost all parts of the nation and every region has a different taste according to the ingredients which are available in those places. I would say that the most delicious kottu is available on the county's eastern side. Different types of kottu roti are available in the country, such as Beef kottu, Chicken kottu, Seafood kottu, Egg kottu, Veg kottu, and so on.



What are the ingredients of this dish?

The main ingredients of this menu are slices of parotta or naan or roti, oil, carrot, leeks, garbage, chili or capsicum, and beef, egg, and vegetable according to the customer preference. This food is mostly served at night as a dinner in the country. Then the spicy lover can enjoy this item because it will be like pure spicy food, but in some famous restaurants and hotels, there will be less spicy because they add some sauces like tomato, and chili when they serve this kottu roti.

I would recommend experiencing the authentic taste of this item in small street-side restaurants in Colombo or the eastern parts of Sri Lanka. Further, this kothu parotta will be a heavy diet in the nighttime. So most people prefer to drink soft drinks while having this kottu. The prices were more reasonable in past years. Still, due to the bad face of the country's economy, nowadays the prices of these items are very high compared with past years and the quality of this kottu roti is also very poor. Still, in some regions, they provide reasonable and tasty like the above-mentioned region.

Finally, this kottu roti is a part of Sri Lankan citizens' culture because, in every province in Sri Lanka, you can get this kottu roti and that much love for this dish. I highly recommend all tourists and food lovers that they should taste this different variety of kottu at least once, after that definitely, you will fall for this dish rest of your life, especially the spicy and fast food lovers.
