Otara Gunewardene flips the coconut shell filled with Compittu while Chef Publis provides inspiration

Inspired by the island’s gastronomic traditions and native ingredients, Osu Kutiya returns with dishes promoting nutrition that is both delicious and cruelty free. Entrepreneur and thought leader, Otara Gunewardene and Chef Publis Silva of Mount Lavinia Hotel provide inspiring dishes made with the freshest produce available in the island.

Words Keshini De Silva

The latest recipes feature Waraka, the nation’s much-loved fruit that is rich in minerals, vitamins and flavour. You can also learn how to prepare a delicious vegan Compittu, inspired by the popular Sri Lankan children’s game.

Leveraging on the island’s bountiful produce – many of which have received international acclaim as superfoods, Osu Kutiya encourages everyone to adopt a healthier and considerate lifestyle.
