Sri Lankan Curry Powder is called as Thuna Paha, a Sinhalese unroasted curry powder used to spice the curry dishes, especially Vegetarian dishes. The name Thuna Paha roughly translates as “three or five” is a spice blend traditionally made with three or five ingredients. Though this means three or five, every cook has a different recipe.
We are doing the third week of BM#89, where I will be showcasing 3 different condiments from 3 different Asian countries.
Bathapu Paha is roasted Sinhalese curry powder, has more intense flavors, and mostly used to flavor meat dishes. I tried a simpler version, adapted from this recipe and used it right away to make a crispy pakoda.
