This is one of my favorite dishes. If Gotu kola is not available, you can use Parsley.

3 cups Gotu kola cleaned
3 tbsp fresh grated coconut*
1 green chillie
3-4 red pearl onions (ratu lunu)**
1 tsp powdered Maldivian fish (optional)
1/2 lime
Salt to taste

Shred the gotu-kola finely. Chop the green chillie and onions finely. Mix all the ingredients and add lime juice and salt to taste. Serve immediately.
* If fresh coconut is not available, you can use desiccated unsweetened coconut. Add about 1 tbsp of water to it and microwave for few seconds before using.
** If red pearl onions are not available, use about a quarter of a regular onion.
