Lunch(ii)
from foreground to back: bandakka theldala, vatakolu suddata & pipingna takkali salada -- (some things thing i had for lunch one day, with rice).
these are sri lankan veggies. bandakka is called lady's fingers, okra in English or okura in japan {thanks to Anzu for telling me of this; and here it is sautéed with chillie and spices), vatakolu is a kind of gourd i think, (and its simmered in turmeric laced coconut milk for this dish), and pipingna takkali salada is a cumber, tomato and onion salad, dressed with vinegar and black pepper.
this is a very simple lunch, in srilanka
