Description

Peter Kuruvita takes the route less-travelled through the cuisines of Sri Lanka and Oceania, a small region bursting with cultural diversity. Featuring recipes and beautiful location photography from Kuruvita's successful SBS television shows, Island Feast and My Sri Lanka. In My Feast, Peter explores the spirit and rich culture of Sri Lanka, The Philippines, Cook Islands, Indonesia and Vanuatu, and shares the secrets of their unique cuisines, blending traditional cookery from these remarkable and locations with Peter's own unique style of cooking. The book is broken into 7 chapters, categorised by type of food (street food, seafood, meat and poultry, etc), rather than geography - so every chapter is a dynamic exploration of the island nations of our closest neighbours.
