I saw a video last week that reminded me of a dish we were served in Sri Lanka a few years ago that was delicious. The video showed how treacle or coconut syrup is made. We had seen the tappers scurry among the tops of coconut trees to harvest nectar from the coconut flower blossoms that then made its way into either coconut sugar or treacle or sometimes a local coconut brandy. In any event it is a real treat and I remembered I had a bottle of treacle from Sri Lanka and tried the combination again as soon as I could find some whole milk yogurt. You can buy the very rich yogurt from water buffalos, but not on my budget or easily in Fresno. Whole milk Greek yogurt will do and if you can’t find treacle, my second favorite sweetener, maple syrup, will do and that is it. Enjoy!
