I like to host guests at my home from time to time, and I am gathering  recipes of different dishes and drinks to keep things interesting. I am interested in trying some Sri Lankan dishes. Can you give me a recipe for Parippu?

I’d be happy to do that! A very common and tasty Sri Lankan dish is Parippu. It’s a traditional rice and curry dish that goes well with curd, so you could also have some yoghurt on the side for dipping. Parippu is also pretty fast and easy to make. To make parippu, you’ll need 1 cup of basmati rice, about 1 1/2 cups water, a tablespoon of ghee (I’ll explain why shortly), a tablespoon of curry powder, and 1-2 cubes of beef, chicken, or pork.

Unfortunately, I don't have a pressure cooker.

In that case, I have two other suggestions: a microwave or an electric rice cooker. Microwaves are a lot more practical, since a lot of people have them!  But if you don’t have one, you can still use your rice cooker. You can cook parippu in a rice cooker, just in a little bit more time!

Microwaves are messy.
