The Sri Lankan style is to consume hoppers with a nice spicy sambol, whilst some enjoy it with a hot meat curry too. However you wish to have it, enjoy the moment!
The yeast plays a major role in fermenting the batter and with the Mauripan yeast you need not leave the batter over night. Get ready for a Hopper night! The Mauripan 60g sachet box is widely available at Keells, Cargills, Glomark and Arpico.
