Cashew Nut Curry

With emotions still raw from the war, I was a little nervous when I arrived at the 233 Brigade in Vakarai to stay with the Sri Lankan Army. However, like most Sri Lankans, the soldiers were incredibly warm and welcoming and we had a lot of fun cooking this cashew curry in their mess kitchen. It was a unique experience and at times felt quite surreal, but I loved it and would go back in a heartbeat!
