Ceylon Curry Of Oysters Recipes

CEYLON CURRY OF OYSTERS

This recipe appeared in The Times in an article by Charlotte Hughes. In Hughes's original recipe, she called for three bay leaves; I used only one. And since chilies are now commonly available, I used a serrano rather than the sweet green pepper that Hughes suggested.

Steps:

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the shallots, garlic and chili, and sauté until softened and starting to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the curry powder, turmeric, cinnamon stick, cloves and bay leaf and cook for 1 minute.
Reduce heat to low and add the coconut milk and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Simmer for 3 minutes. Add the oysters and their liquor; simmer until the oysters are just firm, 3 to 4 minutes. Take the pan off the heat and add lemon juice and salt to taste. Serve over rice -- the rice in the fish recipe that follows would go well -- or on hoppers (see the recipe at nytimes.com/magazine).

CEYLON CURRY POWDER

Taken from Charmaine Solomon. "In Sri Lankan cooking one of the main characteristics is that the spices are dark and roasted, this gives an aroma completely different from Indian curries". Used in "Harak mas curry" (Sri Lankan beef curry), "Lampries Curry" and "Mas Ismoru" (Sri Lankan braised beef with gravy).

VEGETARIAN SRI LANKAN STEW

"Ceylon Curry of Oysters" was originally published in The Times way back in 1939, it then reappeared in Recipe Redux in the New York Times Magazine in 2007. This is where I saw it. Being a vegetarian, I am constantly on the lookout for new vegetarian dishes and am particularly pleased if I can modify a non-vegetarian dish to my specifications! This recipe was very amenable: I replaced the oysters with green beans, carrots and potatoes. Its very easy to put together and goes very well with Basmati Rice. I have also replaced the non-descriptive "curry powder" with Indian spices (cumin, coriander powders and garam masala) easily available at any Indian store. Store open packs in the freezer to retain freshness.
