Sri Lanka Village Food: Pancakes

5,000 years ago, a Sri Lankan sorcerer poured some dough onto a hot stone. His name was Kili bread and that's why he made a new dish that is a real art that I invented called pancake. Now Freeman will show us how to make

pancakes

from scratch. They use wood. here oops well look at the hands to light the stole there they say it is better why it is better I don't know we will ask Freeman Freeman why why this firewood is better for some you are eating the rice it is better than coconut instead of charcoal, this is the best and this is because I will mix the coconut, and that means peeling the opponent's cheese all together for the fire, oh she already started it, this is a tree from your backyard, yeah, okay. let's get out of the way here because this one you see the blade, let's see the shoulder blade, he has to readjust this quite often, sometimes two blades fly away, so let me, let me go somewhere safe and then we let him get to work, Alright. exercise, yeah, so they have a big gaah, you know God and almost like a forest behind this shed.

I guess this is also your territory, right, the forest, yes, your brothers, you already started the fire, it's okay, you don't need more firewood. Freeman is working really hard to collect more wood and then you have enough, even me, something to do some work is good, great, better than reps, yeah, oh, up there is the water tower that we do reps on if you haven't seen my exercise video Freeman also does reps there remember correct form one Wow, what are you doing making

pancakes

Yes, I have to make the pancake you want. Yes, why not? Why not? Hello, kitchen invasion, oh. You're going to make everything from scratch, okay, what are the ingredients in the pancakes? So you've stocked this before, that was that mega purchase you saw us, right? the other day, your pancakes are fantastic, an egg, you put sugar in them too. Or do you have any natural sweetener? No, this one we make some special sugar and honey, that's why, because it tasted a little different than normal sugar and the coconut and the coconut is what's in all this different.

Wow, it's hot in here, hey, are you sweating? She is here cooking like 4 or 5 times a day. You are used to the heat. So what's in all this stuff? Herbs, spices and giblet sugar in grams. This is something you use today. Eat this. This is from Morley. Okay, I'll leave you. work here in peace I'll be back when you start frying the pancakes and you need the fire oh it's so hot here I feel bad sweating everywhere why keep working let's get a miniature don Don't cut the camera no problem yeah fearing for these fingers here, well, while you prepare everything, now I will go look for something that I know remains around here somewhere where the world wants to know if we have any Kasich, oh. yeah yeah oh we do oh wow guys just for the record we don't actually have kasi poo and he just said yes he didn't hear what I was saying right okay silence is golden but they are very reluctant to speak. about this hello everyone, what is this, what is this, really, yeah, let's see about that, let's see about that, what a find?
