    Kale Mallung -- a simple, easy to make yet very flavorful curry from Sri Lanka.

    Kale Mallum For today's BM post I have a very simple, easy to make but very flavorful curry from Sri Lanka. It is Kale Mallung aka Kale Mallum. I love dry curries especially the ones made with green vegetables like spinach, cabbage and broccoli.

    The word mallung literally means 'to mix up' and this Sri Lankan dish can be made with any number of different vegetables. This curry would taste great with spinach, beet, turnip or mustard greens. Or get creative and mix different greens together like mild spinach with some peppery turnip greens.Kale Mallum I love Kale and buy it almost every week. It is more hearty and earthy compared to spinach, but that is what I like about kale. This dry kale curry has very ingredients -- onions, chilies and finally the quintessential Sri Lankan ingredient, coconut. This Kale Mallum is great to serve with steamed rice or rolled inside a roti.

      wow ! Ithis is a must try for me - I love simple sauteed greens like these. Although I dont get kale, I can try with the local varieties, or even mix methi and palak , perhaps 🙂 great pick, Pavani

      That is a fantastic stir fry with Kale. I typically add moong dal to stir fries for more volume and crunch!

      Srilankan cuisine is similar to ours in so many ways. This looks absolutely delicious.
