The undisputed national dish of Sri Lanka is Rice and Curry. It is eaten by locals daily for lunch and often dinner. It consists of a mountain of rice surrounded by various flavorful side curries.

The curries always change based on regional ingredients, but staples include deeply spiced chicken or fish, creamy coconut dhal, and a fresh grated coconut sambol for extra heat.

If you visit a local home, you will notice they eat this national dish entirely with their right hand, mixing the curries into the rice to combine all the flavors perfectly.
