Book Review:
This book is a classic and practical guide to the rich and flavorful cuisine of Sri Lanka (formerly Ceylon). Authored by Doreen Peiris, it promises ''Today's Way to Better Cooking,'' likely offering clear, step-by-step instructions for both traditional dishes and adaptable home cooking.

As a foundational Ceylonese cookbook, it would typically cover essential staples like rice and curry, hoppers, string hoppers, sambols, and an array of seafood, meat, and vegetable dishes that define the island's culinary heritage. Its strength would lie in its accessibility, helping home cooks recreate authentic tastes with locally available ingredients.

For anyone interested in exploring Sri Lankan food—whether a novice cook or someone seeking to reconnect with traditional recipes—this book serves as a trustworthy and timeless kitchen companion. It’s a celebration of the island's food culture, meant to be used, stained, and loved in the heart of the home.
