Delightful dish to serve with a hot curry. Easy to cook as tinned pineapple is used in this dish. You could serve this as a desert, it is not very spicy. I prefer it with a good chicken curry. Coconut milk defines this dish firmly as Sri Lankan.
Ingredients:
19 ounces pineapple chunks, drained (keep the juice)
1 small onion, sliced
2 hot green peppers, seeded and sliced
1 1/2 teaspoons mild curry powder
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
1 teaspoon fish sauce
1/2 teaspoon ground black mustard seeds
6 curry leaves
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1/2 inch cube fresh gingerroot, grated
1/4 cup coconut milk
3 tablespoons cooking oil
1 tablespoon sugar
salt
Directions:
1. Heat the oil in a pan and fry the onions and green peppers till just soft.
2. Now add all of the ingredients EXCEPT for the coconut milk and sugar. Stir well to blend and coat the pineapple with the spices. Cook for 3 minutes.
3. Add half of the pineapple juice to the pan and cook for 2 minutes.
4. Add the sugar and coconut milk, simmer 2 minutes.
5. Take off of the heat.
6. Serve hot or cold as a side dish for your curry.
