Sri Lanka Offers Condolences Over Queen Elizabeth II’s Death

us ambassador town hall - queen elizabeth dies - british pm liz truss - migara guneratne esq - ranjan ramanayake movie - kusumi 40th

Sri Lanka’s President Ranil Wickremesinghe Thursday offered his “deepest condolences” over the passing of Queen Elizabeth II, the monarch of the former British colony for the first two decades of her reign.

“Deepest condolences to the Royal family, government and people of the UK on the passing of HM Queen Elizabeth II,” Wickremesinghe said in a statement.

Elizabeth II reigned as queen of Ceylon, as the island nation was known, until it became a republic and changed its name in 1972.

She visited Sri Lanka twice, travelling in 1954 to the central city of Kandy and the tea-growing mountain region of Nuwara Eliya, once home to a number of British-run plantations.

Her second visit in 1981 included a stop to view the construction of the country’s largest hydro-electricity dam, named for Queen Victoria.

Fiery Citrus Salsa | eLanka

Recipes From Roma’s Kitchen

INGREDIENTS

1green apple

2 fresh red chillies, halved and seeded

1garlic clove

8 fresh mint leaves

juice of 1 lemon

salt and ground black pepper

METHOD

1.Slice the bottom off the orange so that it stands

  firmly on a chopping board. Using a large, sharp

  knife, remove the peel slicing from the top of the

  orange.

2.Fold the orange in one hand over the bowl.Slice

  towards the middle of the fruit, to one side of a 

  segment, and then gently twist the knife to ease

  the segment away from the membrane and out

  of the orange. Remove to remove all of the segments

  and squeeze any juice from the remaining membrane.

3.Peel the apple, slice it into wedges and remove

 the core.

4.Place the chillies in a blender or food processor

  with the orange segments and juice, apple wedges,

  garlic and mint.

5.Process until smooth, with the motor running,

  pour in the lemon juice.

6.Season, pour into a bowl or small pitcher and serve

  immediately.

SERVES 4

This very unusual Salsa makes a fantastic marinade

for all kinds of shell fish, and it is deliciuos when drizzled

over freshly barbecued meat.

If you are feeling really fiery, don’t seed the chillies!

That will make the Salsa particularly hot and fierce!
