Set the oven to 400°F / 204°C and leave it for 15 minutes so the rack is actually hot. Weigh dry jasmine rice, chicken thigh, egg, curry powder, canned coconut milk, yellow onion, cinnamon stick, banana, kosher salt, olive oil. Lamprais is cooked in Colombo as its own plate, not as a copy of a restaurant menu. Bake a parcel of curry, rice, and egg until the rice smells of cinnamon. A banana leaf is the usual wrap. Parchment holds the same parcel, and a slice of banana rides along. Amounts are for 4 from foods this library can count.
