“Pol” means coconut in Sinhala, and this simple flatbread is one of Sri Lanka’s most beloved street foods. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack — there’s really no wrong time for it!
Compassion has been walking alongside children and families in Sri Lanka for over 13 years through local churches and child development centers. Nearly 25,000 children are being served right now.

POL ROTI | Makes 8 Rotis | ~30 min active + 4–12 hrs rest
INGREDIENTS
• 4 cups all-purpose flour, divided
• 1⅔ cups shredded unsweetened coconut
• 1¼ tsp sea salt
• 1 medium red onion, finely chopped

INSTRUCTIONS
1️⃣ Mix 3½ cups flour with coconut, salt, onion, and chiles.

3️⃣ Cover and rest at room temperature 4–12 hours.
4️⃣ Cut into 8 pieces. Roll each into a ball, then flatten into a disc about ¼ inch thick on a floured surface. Keep covered so they don't dry out.
