Fecha de emisión: Jun 01, 2007

Sri Lanka, the beautiful spice island once known as Ceylon, is a rich melting pot of cuisines. It seems every nationality that has visited and traded over the years has left a mark on the cuisine - the Dutch, Portuguese, English, Arabs, Malays, Moors and Indians. With a tropical climate, fresh fruit, vegetables and spices are in abundance and used in many ways. Freshness is the key to the food with households regularly shopping more than once a day for produce. In this episode, Maeve O'Meara, features acclaimed chef Peter Kuravita, and the queen of Asian cooking in Australia - Charmaine Solomon OAM.
