Introduction
Also known as Maalu Paan (fish bread) in Sinhalese, this is a Sri Lankan staple. Here I present the lazy way of preparing it.
Shopping List
Fish (here I used a mix of salmon and trout- 1 large steak each, 2 cans of salmon can also be used)
1 large red onion
2 jalapenos
6 cloves of garlic
2 large potatoes
Pillsbury grands southern homestyle big rolls
2 tablespoons mixed curry powder (cumin, cayenne, coriander, fennel optionally may use 1 teaspoon each of cumin and cayenne or just salt and pepper)
Optional- curry leaves
Butter
Olive oil
Instructions
Boil the potatoes, cool and remove skin. Smash potatoes into bite sized pieces. Boil/ steam the fish steaks and break into chunky bite sized pieces. Gently mix the fish and potatoes together. Chop up onions, jalapenos and garlic ( I used a food processor)
Heat up oil in a frying pan. Add chopped mix, curry powder, salt, pepper and curry leaves. If you don't have/ like curry powder salt and pepper will suffice. Add fish and potato mix and cook for about 5 minutes.
Gently form the Pillsbury roll into a triagular shape
Place stuffing
Fold in each end of the triangle onto itself
Brush with butter
Bake as instructed on the Pillsbury box, 350 for 14-17 minutes until golden brown.
