My Aunty Chelli was a teacher but her real passion resides in the kitchen. There she whips up a storm from delectable baked goodies to rich fragrant curries.

Pineapple Tarts

The pineapple jam filling is made from scratch (pineapple grated then cooked with sugar). The tart is so smooth that it just melts in your mouth. Sooo yummy! Just looking at it makes me crave for more.
Stir Fried Cabbage

This stir-fried. finely shredded cabbage dish is another of our favourites. Egg and carrots are also included.
Sothi

Sothi is a rich coconut based curry with a generous helping of onions, tomatoes etc. This is usually eaten with string hoppers and other curries. Family members and friends who are invited to her parties adore her sothi as it is really creamy and rich. As I lifted the dish cover to take a photo, a lovely rich fragrance greeted me.
Puttu

Aunty Chelli makes all her dishes from scratch. Puttu is a popular Ceylonese staple with origins from Kerala. It is actually steamed rice flour with freshly grated coconut.
