"This salad goes well as appetizer or side dish with any srilankan curry and rice. It’s also tasty on its own. The mix of smoky maledive fish, acidity of the lime, heat of the pepper/ onion and sweetness of the coconut creates an exciting blend that is nicely balanced by the bitterness of the arugula. You can also use portulak (gotukola) or parsley instead of arugula."
