Both India and Sri Lanka have a great variety of desserts, but they all taste about the same - cloyingly sweet. This recipe, found by "Ceylon", is even more valuable. Vatalappan is a delicate soufflé or jelly made from coconut milk and a battalion of aromatic spices: vanilla, nutmeg, cinnamon and cardamom all contribute. Subtle sweetness and a milky substance that melts on the tongue, with crunchy nuts on top. An ideal dessert, be sure to add it to your cookbooks. Recipe from the Bistro Ceylon restaurant.
