Instructions


♥️ Soak Maldive fish in water for 10 minutes, then discard the water and add the Maldive fish to the mortar pestle and pound until it is smashed and palatable ( This step is only required if you wish to add Maldive fish)

♥️ Place all ingredients in a blender except the Maldive fish and blitz until it looks like a paste

♥️ Add the blended onion mixture to the mortar pestle and pound until it is well blitz

♥️ ( The reason why we are finishing it off in the mortar pestle is to intensify the taste of the lunu miris, the more you pound, the more bitterness of the red onion gets evaporated and more flavourful the lunu miris gets)


♥️ Serve with coconut roti, hoppers or milk rice
