Sri Lankan Herb Salad (Generic) - Mallung


Ingredients:
2 cups finely shredded green leaves
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 green chilies, seeded and chopped, optional
l/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
2 teaspoons pounded Maldive fish
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt
2/3 tablespoons freshly grated or desiccated coconut

Directions:
Put leaves into a saucepan with all the ingredients except coconut. If there is not much water clinging to leaves after washing, add a sprinkling of water. Stir well, cover and cook over medium heat, about 6 minutes. Uncover, add coconut and toss over low heat until coconut absorbs all the liquid. Remove from heat. Serve hot or cold as an accompaniment to rice.
