Vegetable Kottu Roti

Vegetable Kottu Roti is  a very popular street food in Sri Lanka. For foreigners visiting Sri Lanka for the first time, it might look like a kind of fried noodles, but actually it's not made from pasta but from bread, more precisely from chopped Godhamba Roti. Walking along the streets in Sri Lanka, you can sometimes hear a truly deafening kind of clattering coming from some diners. That's the sound of the chopping on the flat grill.

Traditionally, Kottu Roti was a local dinner made of leftovers. But the stalls and small restuarants now actually use fresh vegetables to prepare Kottu Roti for their guests. The photos are taken in Angel Kitchen in Ekala, which is at the road from Ja Ela to Minuwangoda.
