Miss Podi Hands & Amma’s MEAL ADVENTURES!

A rich Sri Lankan curry cooked 'low and slow' in local spices

Perfectly grilled chicken with crunchy cabbage slaw; mini burgers that are delicious school lunch options.

A sweet, savoury and healthy baked chicken, that's easy to make but so festive and delicious.

A crowd pleaser with a spicy creamy filling that is oh-so-simple to make

Stir fried pork with a unique flavour. A fresh, sweet and sour twist to a classic stir fry.

Spicy prawns, sweetened with dark, local jaggery.

Succulent homemade beef-lingus burgers, flavoured with sweet and spicy pineapple sauce.

Mini mixed meat pies, inspired by 'The Tale of Peter Rabbit, full of chicken flavour and completely encased in a puff pastry crust.

This may look like a mild, pale curry, but it packs a punch in terms of flavour. I don’t claim to have made an authentic Thai curry here, because cooking during lock down means substitutions need to be made sometimes, but it sure is delicious.

This is my modern twist on the classic Sweet & Sour Pork. It is a healthy rendition of the classic as there is no oil used and no deep frying involved.

One pot meals are the way to go, especially when rationing produce. Yes, these meals are carb-centric but they can also be full of flavour and packed with nutients.

A super simple alternative to classic puff pastry.

This Biriyani is special one-pot wonder meal. It’s full of flavour, covers all the food groups and is pretty easy to put together. It's versatile too, as you can switch up the meat and veggies used with whatever is available. We usually make it in a rice cooker, so once the meat is marinated, it just takes 20 minutes or so to cook
