SRI LANKAN FISH CURRY AND DRY-FRIED SNAKE BEANS

I've never been to Sri Lanka, but those who have rave about it - the beaches, the colonial architecture, the food, the cheap prices. Would a Sri Lankan recognise this curry? I don't know. It shares some flavours with the Malabar coast of India. And there are things in here that remind me of the Mauritian food cooked by our friend Sophie. Some wonderfully fresh snake beans from the markets seemed an ideal accompaniment - simply wok-tossed with chilli oil and a great crispy prawn chilli paste that's sold in most Asian grocery stores.
