Coconut milk creaminess, vibrant yellow from turmeric, and natural sourness from tomatoes. This is Kiri Hodi, a Sri Lankan coconut milk stew (THINGS TO DO IN SRI LANKA). Known as Isthu in Kerala, in Malaysia it’s called Sodhi, while the Malay community has its version, Masak Lemak.
Add vegetables, and it becomes a Vegetable Coconut Milk Stew. Add boiled eggs, and Kiri Hodi is elevated further. It’s a simple recipe, yet a classic. It goes well with Putu Mayam (string hoppers) or as a gravy for your rice meal.
