About Lunu miris

Lunu Miris is a flavorful and fiery condiment integral to Sri Lankan cuisine, often paired with traditional dishes like rice, curries, and hoppers. Made from finely chopped or ground red chili peppers, shallots, lime juice, salt, and sometimes Maldive fish flakes for added umami, this vibrant sambal delivers a robust mix of spice and tang. Rich in vitamins A and C from the chilies, Lunu Miris can provide antioxidant benefits while lime juice offers a dose of vitamin C. However, its high salt content may be a concern for individuals managing sodium intake. Typically eaten in small quantities due to its intense heat, Lunu Miris can add depth to meals without significant caloric impact. Its bold flavors capture the essence of Sri Lanka’s culinary heritage, making it a staple for those seeking authentic and dynamic tastes.
