Kottu, also known as koththu rotti or kothu roti, is a famous dish from Sri Lanka, where people traditionally make it as street food. It’s so popular in Sri Lanka that is considered their equivalent for a hamburger!
Some of the crucial ingredients for kottu include: Sri Lankan flaky flatbread (roti), aromatic spices, delicious meat and fresh vegetables. It is made by stir-frying the roti flatbread with spices and eggs and finally adding chicken curry sauce.
The classic version is with chicken meat (Chicken Kottu or Chicken Kottu Roti), but there are other versions where chicken is substituted with other types of meat or veggies. Except the Chicken Kottu, the popular ones are also vegetable kottu, egg kottu and beef kottu.
